She looked SO much better. Purring and creaking and eating eating eating. So much snacking going on. She came of the dextrose at 2 pm and has been holding her own with just the insulin and kitty food since then. If she makes it through tonite and tomorrow with a good glucose curve she gets to come home. The ketones are gone, the blood in her urine is gone and her blood sugar is doing well with just one unit of insulin in the morning and one at night--the smallest amount the vet has ever given.

She was just like herself, just a bit skinnier.

I am nearly ready to be relieved. I will when I have her home curled in my lap or on my chest exhaling her devil breath up my nose. Please let her come home tomorrow feeling better, please.

Miss Em was good through another visit and on another note today Em looked right at me and I *saw* her figure out that I'm not just the lady who feeds her, plays with her and changes her but that I'm mom. It's hard to describe, but I just saw her make the connection while we were hanging out in the rocking chair and she was sucking her thumb looking at me. This huge smile and snuggle and giggle and then a sigh and she reached up for my face. This hole in my heart fills in.

Miss Emily has been so good through so many of the visits with Miss Ninny because she's inherited your and James' kitty people genes.
