fourofem Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I feel like I've cried wolf too many times with my boy...his diagnosis back in December, his "night out" on New Year's Eve and again on Monday. Please bear with me ...I've not been through this before. With four, I've learned not to panic with scrapes, the occasional "Big D", picky eating, etc. But this osteo thing with Lewis really has me on edge. He's been managing so well so when he came up lame on Monday, I freaked! I thought that was it....I cried all day. Tuesday morning, he got up and it was like Monday never happened. He's still limping a bit and it takes him a while to get everything just right to lay down but this afternoon when I had them all out back, he played with Hitch and took off after Stel when I threw a ball for her. He seems to wear out a little quicker than he used to but is still game for anything. I have to make him come in. All of your prayers worked and I just want to thank you all for that. You've given us some more time. I know I'll be asking for more at some point in time but for now, life is good. Thank you again.

iluvgreys Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 So glad to hear that Lewis is feeling much better. I hope you come to GT anytime you need support. Osteo is such a monster and can suddenly rear it's ugly head and make life miserable for all.

Jackandgrey Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I'm thrilled. There is no script for this. And there is no way you could conceivable imagine that an episode like that is "nothing", that's for sure. Like I mentioned to you, Jack had a couple of them too and oh the relief when it wasn't time.

fourofem Posted February 26, 2009 Author Share Posted February 26, 2009 How's our boy today? Worn out!!! We had a beautiful day here today...about 65 degrees and sunny. He got lots of fresh air and sunshine and nothing makes him happier! It's supposed to be warm again tomorrow and then I think the bottom drops out...cold and rainy for the weekend. Yuk! Life continues to be good!
