jewel21 May 4, 2019 Share May 4, 2019 I brought Steve to the vet for a biochemistry and nail clip. His appetite has been fluctuating a bit and while he's been eating really well this past week, his weight did go down since last December. Before the blood test, the vet did remind me that there's always a small risk with drawing blood since they take it from the jugular vein using a small needle. After awhile he came back and said they successfully cut his nails and managed to draw blood. However, two hematomas formed on the side of his neck, and the vet applied pressure for five minutes. They also administered oxygen as a precaution but Steve was doing well and chirping. He went back to check on him again and brought him back to me after a few more minutes. I was teary and as soon as I got him home, I started sobbing and he just quietly watched me. Now I'm terrified to ever do another blood draw again, or put him away in boarding for 10 days while I go to Italy. I'm actually tempted to cancel the whole trip except I think my cousin would kill me. 2 Link to comment
Petunia13 May 4, 2019 Share May 4, 2019 @peacheslatour Perhaps you can put some brush or a cardboard box or crate with a portion cut out over it so the momma can get in it the birds can’t or it’s not easily visible to predators. A lot of the wild rabbits by me have their burrows in the center of a cluster of bushes and brush so the hole isn’t visible and they can hid when they enter and exit. George can smell them and kinda remembers if he sees one boing there even long after and he returns and tries to scratch around there or sniff deeply. Rabbits and wild animals have it so hard 😩 Then again... domestic ones don’t have it easy either. The amount of cruelty to even pets is insane and in many places not criminalized. 4 Link to comment

This is one of those times. Embrace it, and know that Steve will be fine. 10 Link to comment

jewel21 May 6, 2019 Share May 6, 2019 Well apparently I can't board Steve at the new vet like I had planned because there's already another bird boarding there and they're too small a place to take more than one bird at a time. I have to book at the Montreal hospital instead where I used to work. I'm not sure how I feel about that but whatever. I also have to put him in boarding a day earlier than planned because we're leaving on a Sunday and the animal hospital is closed on Sundays.

If you are in cities, like Venice, you don't need Italian. It's in the countryside where you might be in a situation where they don't speak English. But really, they have so much tourism there, they can accommodate through gestures. We stayed in a villa in a remote part of northern Tuscany and a lot of the villages around there did not have English speakers. But we got by, no problem. We drove, and also took the train, and had no problems. Italy is a great country to visit, I am jealous.✈️🍷🧀🍕😎 I don't know much about converters but I am sure you can find them much cheaper. Maybe the Source, Walmart, or even Dollerama? 8 Link to comment

Gramps keeps saying the train system is too complicated for us to take, he'll call his cousin to drive us to the airport in Rome. Like omg, we're not going to Rome, lol. Also, Italy is full of tourists, people speak English. Maybe not his family members but most Italians do. And worse comes to worse, I can speak French, hah. The only time we'll be in small cities is when we're going to visit gramp's side of the family, but that's only for a few days and while we're there we want to visit Pompeii and the catacombs. Then we're going to Modena where I hope they'll be more English speakers. 10 Link to comment

Cupid Stunt May 12, 2019 Share May 12, 2019 Today is Mother's Day. Quote West Virginia activist Anna Jarvis is credited with creating the holiday that is celebrated today. In 1908, Jarvis campaigned for a national observance of the holiday in honor of her mother, who was a community health advocate. Her mom had organized several Mother's Day Work Clubs that addressed child rearing and public health issues, and Jarvis wanted to commemorate her and the work of all mothers. However, Jarvis later became disillusioned by how floral and greeting card companies commercialized the holiday and said she regretted starting it. You're not alone if it's a difficult day because of estrangement, death or distance. Wanting to try to reconnect by establishing a response based in values instead of emotions isn't so simple when history is filled with pitfalls, pain and loss. Sometimes accepting what cannot sustain us is the best course of action. Perhaps a call or text wishing them well is enough to start future conversations. Remembering the dead is appropriate, no matter how long they have been gone. Acknowledging those that have taught and stood by you is the truest expression of Mother's Day. You know what is the right thing to do. 9 Link to comment
