Work sucks. I hate having a job. Why can’t I be a kid again and be taken care of? I need to find a rich husband. (And I don’t fucking want to hear about setting the women’s movement back. I’m tired and I’m allowed to be bitchy. If you don’t like it shove it up your ass.)
No major changes with Mom. The blisters have connected and become two or three big huge blisters. The whole top of her foot is covered. Its all IV fluid. When her kidneys shut down, the fluid didn’t have anywhere to go so its coming out of her skin. Her stomach is distended because they have pumped so much fluid into her body. The Infectious Disease doctor and the Wound Care doctor both said it will take time for all the blisters to clear. Meanwhile Mom is on a morphine pump. Lovely, right?
I’m going to bed. I’m sure I have more to write, but my eyelids aren’t listening to me. Night y’all.
Y’all take care and hug those babies tight.

Ovarian cancer: It whispers, so listen.
RYN: I think they make good pets. Easy to take care of and they don’t require much. My male hedgehog, Xeke, lives in a giant, clear sterlite bin that cost me $14. I bought cheap polar fleece blankets from IKEA ($2-3/each) and made cage liners out of them. I didn’t like any of the bedding the pet stores sell.. and it is expensive. With the cloth liners, I just shake them out and wash em. They require very high quality food, though. Mine eats Royal Canin cat food (Light 37) which is about $14/bag mixed with $12 ferret food. However, for one hedgehog, the food lasts about 6 months. His diet is supplemented with live mealworms which are about $3-4 for 100 of them. Some hedgehogs like fruits, cooked chicken, and egg as treats. Xeke has turned his nose up to all of the above. We’ll see if my new female hedgie likes any of those things :o) I would not recommend a hedgehog for a young child. I think about 10 years old or so might be old enough to handle one. They are prickly when upset, scared, or angry. None of my hedgehogs (I’ve had 5 total) have ever bit me.. only a tiny nibble since I had icing on my finger once and didn’t realize it :o) I would have nibbled at my finger, too!
