A New Hope

Why do I feel like George Lucas? 🙂

I took Rascal to see Dr. David Jones. Rascal’s weight has dropped to 7 pounds! He was very reassuring, however and he said that he wants to get some more information before he can say anything definite. He said that in cat’s Rascal’s age, when there is kidney failure, there is usually some underlying cause. Once the cause is identified, you treat it. He said that it could be an infection. He gave me some oral antibiotics to give Rascal. His approach is to try things and see if they make a difference. He also needs a urine specimen from Rascal. He gave the tools to get it. Once we have that, he’ll know more. At least I have a plan now and that makes me feel a little better.

I'm a middle-aged (bordering on senior) geek, born near the tail end of the Baby Boom generation. Since I was just a little guy, I've loved science fiction, comic books, science, space, math and a bunch of other geeky things. As a kid, I felt out of place because of my interests, but now, I embrace them fully.

  1. Hi Mike. How is Rascal, a.k.a. Meanie, doing now at week’s end? Any more word from Dr. Jones?
