Today has been weird. I slept off and on until about 5:30. P.M. 😳 I don't even have a sleep hangover, though. I feel ok. I think I needed it. My skin is breaking out and my bones are getting sore, but Dr. Edmond wants to keep me on Methotrexate until next month before we try something else. It could just be work / school / house / financial stress causing me to flare.
Shadow is still really sore in the mouth, but the pain is fading. He's been taking Aleve every few hours still. He was having trouble getting his rubber bands in last night, so I did it for him. Thankfully, he's got it under control today. He's really not happy with having braces right now, but the first week is always the worst. It's super sore and a lot to get used to. Hopefully, he'll be all sorted out before school starts.
Emma's doing fine still. We're still giving her Prednisone and eye drops, but no word on her test results. I called the vet on Friday and they said that if we've heard nothing, they will call Auburn this coming Friday to check in. I hate to keep waiting, but she's doing ok. Her eyes look almost normal except that they stay dilated a lot. Sometimes she snaps me when she takes food, which she never used to do. But other than that she seems to feel ok, so I am ok.
Well, finals are this coming week. I'm off to do some Algebra. The stuff we did last week wasn't as fun to me, so I've gotta put in some serious effort to make sure I've got it. Still planning to pass that class with an A. 🙂
