I think I would consider changing vets, too-sm

after this, as it is not wise to give a cat just dry food. They need the wet food to keep from getting dehydrated. Dry food does not contain everything they need to maintain good health as they have mostly grain and no true meat products. Check with other vets. This one sounds a little too pushy and has a large ego. JMO

vets
I have asked many a vets over the years if they disclose to the owner what exactly is entailed in the procedure, and they all have responded no they do not, so what does that say about vets! "First do no harm", guess that excludes them. Can you imagine going in for a mastectomy and them not telling you what it entails, I think not, big money maker for them.
my mother's vets have always
done it for free, but I've never had one that did.  Going rate around here is about 75 unless you want cremation or disposal.  The vet that came to my house only charged 75 and took my baby with him.  He was a mobile vet and pays no overhead for rent.  Such a great service as taking a cat to the vet is such a stressful experience and I did not want it to be his last.
Vets here favor Frontline Plus
I think it's because of our warm climate meaning we have more of one or the other to deal with. I can't remember which way it is, but each vet we've been to here has preferred Frontline Plus. I'd ask your vet.
my vet told me and other vets have confirmed
that dying cats purr and even cats in a lot of pain will purr.  Really devastated me at one time when I was trying to convince myself my cat was not in pain.  Cats are also sometimes very stoic and it makes it very difficult to discern how much pain they are in. 
Changing my name.
Too many MT in MT on here now.  I'm changing my name for those I chat with regularly on here.
All the vets I ever worked with had their cats declawed.

Well Hoorah for the Vietnam vets/Harley riders--sm
As badly as they were treated when they came back from their war, it is heartwarming to know that they will still support the soldiers fighting in this war! I am glad they are there for these poor families!

changing your OB in the last month of pregnancy?

I was just wondering if anyone here had any experience with changing your OB in the last month of pregnancy? Or if anyone knows anyone who changed their OB late in pregnancy?


Without going into too many details, my OB was away on a personal emergency this week and her partner was not in the office due to the holiday. I was having some problems this week and I needed an OB on Friday. I called but my OB's office only had a recorded message. There was no answering service. So I stuck it out until Satruday and went to the emergency room at the hospital where I was supposed to be delivering this baby. The Triage Nurse at the hospital was so awful and mean to me that I burst into tears and stormed out of there. She didn't flat out refuse me medical attention, but she gave me such a hard time about being there that she made me feel very uncomfortable, and in so many words she forced me out. She was the nastiest most unprofessional person I have ever dealt with in the healthcare industry. DH agrees.


So now DH and I are totally turned off to that hospital and I don't feel comfortable at all delivering there. Fortunately for us, we have 2 other excellent hopsitals close to our house. The problem is, my OB only delivers out of the hospital where I had this incident. So I was thinking of changing back to my old OB for the end of the pregnancy. He delivered my nephew and my sister said she liked him and had no problems with him. But he has not dealt with me pregnant. I just went to him for 2 annual checkups several years ago, then decided to change over to my current OB because my sisters and friends raved about her.


And it's really been a textbook pregnancy -- no problems with me or the baby. He would just need my records sent to him, and he'd need to know that I will be a scheduled c-section. Really at this point all I need is for someone to go in there and get the baby out for me.


Any advice? Do you think he would refuse my case since I'm 35 weeks already? The whole incident is unfortunate, and I love my OB, but I am so turned off to the hospital that I'd be willing to go with another OB just to be able to deliver out of another hospital where we'll feel comfortable and taken care of.


time changing? Eastern

Was Eastern time delayed for some reason- my regular clocks on the eastern and 2 clocks fell back an hour? What is happening?


So tired of changing my clothing day after day after
well, you get the point. I basically am ok while sitting- just when getting up or in the morning, unable to make it 10 feet without an accident. It has been past time I should have seen about this, too busy trying to make that $$$ and other things I got going on. Now is the time!
Changing shoes helped me.
I had a touch of this years ago. I realized it was from one particular pair of shoes. It went away when I quit wearing them. Are you seeing a podiatrist?
Does anyone know if we'll be changing time?? sm
I thought it would've been this past weekend.  Every Halloween it's dark by about 5 pm.  I haven't heard or seen anything about time change.
changing 35 mm slides to pictures?

Has anyone recently changed 35 mm slides into pictures? Do you know who can do it?  I just found loads of slides from my honeymoon 28 years ago.  I forgot my husband and I used to take slides. 


 


TIA

You are only responsible for changing your behavior, not someone elses
I am the product of a divorce years and years ago and thank goodness my mother had enough sense to not stay with my father. He was actually caught running around on her with other women. I knew my father growing up, spent time with he and my stepmom, loved her but I missed absolutely nothing by not having him in my house every day. You are responsible for your own self-. The advice you are giving is like saying a man messes around on a woman, drinks too much and maybe after the marriage he will change. You can only make yourself happy, no one else can do that for you. I have never had a time when I could not stand my husband, never and I would believe he probably feels the same. We laugh when others say they have to work at marriage- we just do not get this. Like I said, product of divorce, happily married myself, never missed my father, saw him but never, ever close in my life. By the way, I am one of the older and wiser group also.
