When Mom was on the appetite stimulant was she more alert and with it than she is now without being on it? It just seems like she was having more "good" days when she was on the stimulant than she is now...or am I totally wrong in my remembering? Poor Daddy...I hate when he does that mumbling thing and sounds so garbled..like he needs to spit really bad or clear his throat. I'm sure when he's tired, it's worse, that makes sense, but when he starts talking weird stuff, being tired doesn't seem to be a good explanation for that...but that's just me! Jeanie I'm glad to hear Annie came through her surgery fine..that's so scary...for both of you!! Schnauzers tend to have kidney/bladder/sugar issues..Baron did as well when he got a little older. How old is Annie now? Judy sorry to hear Ona is struggling with things...I can only imagine how she must feel...and yes, I figure Mondays must be tough for her...Is there something else we could send her or get for her that might help? When did we do the gift card? And did I pay for my part of it? I swear, sometimes I scare me!! Keep those posts a comin'!! Love you all, Jamie
