The year started with hope, but soon turned rough when Felix fell sick, which unfortunately coincided with my mother being not well either..... By now, luckily, every one is able to slowly climb out of the trough and continue their life journey in relative peace and happiness..... , while I thrive to keep my job (to meet Felix's medical bill!!) Haha !! Thanks be to God!!
Just a brief summary on the kid's condition:
Goldie
A good girl she remains. As a 15 year old lady, I would say she is keeping up decently. A blood test in October found out that her GGT was alarming at 86 (normal 0-4) and her weight was on a minor downtrend. Ultrasound did showed some signs of degeneration for some organs (which is inevitable). Luckily having taken both Western and CTM, her GGT return to normal (at 0 in 12/19) and her weight was up a notch (my best X'mas present).
Thank you, dear. Let's keep on improving - eat well, rest well and be happy!!
Betty
The most caring child amongst the three. She is a dear little angel to the family. She usually greets her brother/sister when they return from vet consultation and seldom fights for attention. At most, she will join Felix in his daily exercise fun. Though sometimes, she is a bit picky on food, she managed to gain some weight. Her fur seems to have thickened a bit too!
Thank you, dear. You have a big loving heart! As the middle child, you sometimes might feel being neglected. Rest be assured, its not mean't to be so, and we will try to improve on this. Just continue to run, play, eat and sleep well and enjoy the family fun!
Felix
The year began with hope, as his blood platelet slowly return to normal, after suffering from drug allergy in late 2018. However, good days never lasted long. In March, his bile and liver condition deteriorated. Got his gall bladder removed and a temporary stent was placed in his twisted bile duct. However, the road to recovery was very rough and tough. July, was the worst period, when he was in and out of hospital on alternate weeks, and plans were underway for a second operation to insert a permanent stent.
With the grace of God, while waiting for the permanent stent (arrived in 9/19), the new drugs and CTM treatments started to shed light. Although it is still too early to announce of his recovery, at least he had been staying out from hospitalization for 4 months already. With love, care, vigilance and proper medical treatment, we will continue to keep our fingers crossed that he can avoid being "butchered".... haha.
Thank you, dear for being a good child and excellent patient. We think you know that all the treatment are for your long term good and you co-operate brilliantly. Just hang in there. Have faith! Be optimistic and patient! Hopefully we will soon see the sunrise!
Wishing all our readers, their family and loved ones, a Happy, Safe and Blessed 2020 !!
