   1,000 posts-WOW!!!   

Tuckie and Justice and mommy are so in awe of the support from all our IMOM friends. Thank u for being here for us, and for supporting us with ur love, genorosity and kindness. We thank u from the bottom of our hearts!!!

Tuck and Justice are doing well. No attacks of the TP, and of course best of all--no seizures.

Tuckie is at 3 days (last seizure was Monday at 12:45AM) and Justice this eve (last seizure was Tues at 8PM) will be at 2 days!

I got a bonus check on the boys last night--Abbie got hives and they called to ask how much Benadryl to give. Poor Abbie...but I did get to ask again abt the boys!!
OK, I am keeping track of how many times I call to check on the boys. I won't count if they call me. So get ur guesses in--it's a challenge (Paula, u may have been kidding abt doing a challenge--but it seems like a great idea)!! It can either be fund raiser or just for fun.  But on Monday when I arrive home--I will stop the count (well of course I check on them even the day I will be getting home!!!).

I want to know how many times u guys check on ur pets when u are away--esp if they are special needs pets--or how many times u think u would check on them if u were gone.

Tuckie's at 3 days!!!

===============T    ==============

Justice will be at 2 tonight at 8PM (having faith!!)

===============J    ==============


I am leaving soon for Cincinnati. I will miss everyone!! I usually call Marty sometime between 10pm-11pm, and then she will update!!! Thanks again Marty!!

[Snowbelt]

Hey, Cindy, we miss you, too!

Well, I think your challenge should definitely be a fundraiser. There are several furkids who are needing some help right now. I just donated to one this morning, so I won't participate in this game. However, when we are gone, Jeff and I call usually 2 times a day--sometimes 3 (depending on you-know-Hoover).

You're not only keeping a strong vigil on your boys and all their sibs, but you're here holding up your post, hah!

So glad that the news on Justice and Tucker is positive. Seems they couldn't all stay well with you away, so Abbie's expressing her discomfort.  Now, she's trying to get you home.  Oh, woe is the life of a mother!

Just posting because I always do and now I can't do otherwise.

1,000 posts, it's a shame you're not more popular.

Ok we can do this as a challenge so here goes...How Many Times Will Cindy Phone HOme Challenge  

As we know Cindy is away at a conference and her housemates are taking care of Tucker and Justice.So if you can guess how many times Cindy phones home to check on the boys---you win. Everybody gets only one guess--if you guess rWRONG you donate to one of the pets in need or to any of the IMOM funds.I f you guess correctly you get braggin rights.lol
Cindy is counting how many times she phones home and will let us know on her return,which is Monday. Cindy left Today and will return Mon so get your best  guesses in. So ]READY   SET   GO Good Luck All

Cindy is counting how many times she phones home and will let us know on her return, which is Monday.

I dunno, Paula -- do you think she's trustworthy??    None of this monkey business of "they called me first."  We might need to subpoena phone records.

I think Cindy will call home 3 times a day.  She's gone for roughly 4 days, so that would be 12 calls.

[paulajmnj]

Kim,
you know if i could contact her housemates and have them keep a record we could compare   I think she calls every 3-4 hours so my guess is  24

[Judy]

I'm in for the challenge...I'll guess 4 times a day, for 4 days that equals 16 times...

What a GREAT way to raise some money for the PINs...now the challenge will be who to danate to...

I know that Cindy is worried but believe me guys...everyone at Cindy's house is WONDERFUL people...Tucker and Justice couldn't be in better hands...Judy

[paulajmnj]

OK Folks get your guesses is.
   Just a hint   Cindy's housemates answer the phone with the  boys  are   just   fine . so get yout thinkin caps on and play--

and the boys

[Kay]

Okay, I'm in... I think she'll call 6 times each travel day, but only 3 times on the class days. so I'm going for 18 times...

Hoping the boys are doing fine, Cindy is learning lots and resting lots!!!

[Laura IMOM]

I'm not being scientific at all and am guessing 23 times.....   

Cindy we miss you already and I hope you are learning lots and having some FUN while you are at it!!!

Laura and the bratz

[Marty S]

I just got off of the phone with Cindy with an update.
Well, good news about Justice.  He hit one day at 8pm,   plus it seems his tummy is feeling better since he's getting less food and some rice, so maybe he does have chronic pancreatitis and a lower fat food will help him.
And we're hoping that if he does have chronic pancreatitis, that might be what made him start seizing again.
Tucker had a CP, plus he's having some bad pre-ictal behavior.  Lots of pacing.  So they gave him meds to hopefully calm him down and have a quiet night.
I'll update again tomorrow night, hopefully with news that BOTH boys have been seizure free.
Marty

[Tracy IMOM]

Marty, thanks for the report I'm sorry that Tuck is having CP's, but happy about Justice! Whoo hoo!  

Cindy, we miss you, too. I'm glad you had a chance to stop by today     As always, I'll keep the boys in my thoughts and prayers, and you too, of course



Tracy  

[Marty S]

Hi everyone, I just talked to Cindy.
Both boys are doing really good!!!
I messed up the count yesterday.  Justice is at 3 days now.      
And even though Tucker wasn't doing so good last night, he made it and he's at one day!!  
Cindy's very relieved.  She's really tired so I'm hoping that since she doesn't need to worry too much about the boys, she'll get a good nights sleep.
I'll update again tomorrow night, hopefully with more good news!!
Marty

[Kim]

Thanks, Marty.  We're relieved too!

Cindy, when you catch up on this thread, please note the following guesses on # of calls home:

me -- 12
Paula -- 24
Judy -- 16
Kay -- 18
Laura -- 23
Francine -- 32

Hi!!
Oops, I can't play the guessing game because I know how many times she's called home already and I'm not gonna tell..........LOL.
Both boys are doing really good.  No more seizures.  At least none that anyone saw.  Sometimes the CP's are easy to miss if you're not right there watching.
And Justice's tummy must be feeling better too.  He hasn't even tried to eat any TP.
So Justice gets          
And Tucker gets  
I'll update again tomorrow, and then Cindy should be back home sometime on Monday.

96!!! Juli, you must really be eager to donate to a PIN!

Kim -- 12
Paula -- 24
Judy -- 16
Kay -- 18
Laura -- 23
Francine -- 32
Juli -- 96  (Obviously this challenge is not based on so much per number that you are off! - Or is it?

My perspective is Kim Judy and Kay are the friends here. Cindy will protect her pups by not driving her room mates too crazy! She knows they'll call if there's a problem. Cindy - Easy Easy.. Whoa... Easy...

Great to hear the pups are doing so well!

Marty, Thank you for posting! Have you heard if she is enjoying her workshop?

MarthaJane, Baila & Co.

[Marty S]

Hi, I just talked to Cindy.
She's really tired but said that the workshop went well.
Amazingly, both boys are doing great.
No seizures!! And Justice must be feeling really good. No signs of tummy problems, and he's not pounding at doors to get to the TP. So it looks like he'll be on a very low fat diet for a while.
Justice!  

Tucker!      

Cindy will fill you in on all the details, probably sometime tomorrow evening.
And she did keep count of all the phone calls.

[Jade Silverman's Mom]

So, Cindy, did you make contributors out of all of us?  LOL  Seems to me if you've kept your own count it's got to be less than it would have been, which puts us all at a disadvantage.  

Ecstatic you're back and that all went well both for you and your boys!

Looks like Justice prefers low fat to toilet paper, wise choice.

Whoo hoo!!! Great news, Marty! And I'm glad Justice has given up the tP habit...hopefully for good. Great news all around...hope it continues!

[Judy]

What great news to wake up to...the boys are both doing GREAT, I wonder if Cindy was able to relax alittle...I sure hope so...

HUGS to you all...isn't it amazing that Cindy can be away for a long week end and still have someone post for her...

I can't wait to hear all about her week end...Judy

[k9sign]

You guys are a hoot!!!!!!
I had to check really quick to see if anyone guessed correctly--NOPE--but one person was closer then any other--and even though u may think that person is Juli--it isn't--sorry Juli!! If I could have called as often as I wanted--Juli would have won hands down--but I would have been killed by everyone here-lol.

So, the winner is (at least the closest guesser)....

oh first we will have a commercial break lasting ummm a while until I can get back on. lol.

Tuckie had a CP today--Justice is fine---and I will be back later. Tuck wants cuddled.

Long commercial break...



Thanks angels!!

[Jade Silverman's Mom]

[attachmentid=776] Once you dig your heals in, we all want a workshop report!  I take it the drives there and back were smooth.  You must be exhausted.

Tuck made it to 3 days!  Kinda hung in there long enough to prevent your worrying.  It's the Cuddle and Snuggle time, hopefully you'll get some rest.  Looking forward to your posting again.

I'm glad you're back too!
