Kyla I am sending you the best purrs and prayers I can spare for you.  I am
in the same mood you are.  I feel really bad for my furballs specially
Ka'shay since spirit was her best friend. I have notice all of them are not
eating as much even limo who hated spirit.  So it is rough all around

My mother has whispered in my ear to tell you  there is always a brighter
tomorrow it just today that sucks

If you haven't considered knee replacement, please do so.  They are doing
wonders with knee replacements now.  Of course it hurts like all get out
for a while, but in the end it is worth it.  best wishes.   MLB

Don't feel bad about unloading on us and don't feel selfish. One of the
things families do is supporting those in need, and we're all family. I
wish I could offer concrete help, but I can't. All I can do is send purrs
and prayers your way for the knees to cooperate.

Prayers and purrs coming you way from me and mine,

And no you are not being selfish.  I know where you are coming from.

I am going on 64 and have had a stroke in '99, had triple by-pass
surgery last year plus my one knee is so bad I have all I can do to
climb the simplest steps.  Not to mention my memory is going also.
The kids make me carry a cell phone anymore so they can contact me to
check on me.  Don't know why.  They all have their own life and do not
have time to be bothered with an oldie like me except when they want
something.

If it was not for my furbabies I honestly do not know what I would do.
They are what keeps me going and not giving up anymore.  My babies and
the strays I feed.  

I did try to take my life one time but my ex called the medics and  I
was brought back.  For what?!?!?  Of course that was before I took in
my furbabies.

Anyways good luck to you and as I said prayers and purrs are coming
your way.

Perhaps but constant pain is about the worst thing.  What did the doctors
say about accident so soon after the new knees?  There is nothing they
can do?

Purrs and hugs, Kyla!

Everybody is entitled to a pity party once in a while.  The trick is not to
stay there too long.  I'm sure you won't.

I'm sorry you're not feeling well. I know ALL about chronic pain. It
just wears you down; physically and mentally.

Purrs are on the way.

We all have bad days, Kyla, and thats what prayers & purrs are for - the bad
days. Most of cope most of the time with the lot we've been given, whatever
that may be. Its just the bad days when we need that extra love & support to
get through.

Hugs & purrs,

Welcome Kyla,

I hope you feel better soon.  Many comforting purrs coming your way.

We always have lots of purrs, and never begrudge sending them to those
in need. I missed reading the group for a few days, but am sending
purrs that you're feeling better now.
