 On Sunday we spent the afternoon at Mitch and Brittany's home.  Embree was blessed and we celebrated both Addyson's and Adilynn's Birthdays.

Peyton's Blessing 12/11/2011


Michelle decided to wait for Michael to get home to have Peyton blessed.  It was great having my sons and husband together to bless Peyton.  Kyle and Michelle are wonderful parents and she is so lucky to be born into such a great home.  We were also able to get a 4 generation picture.

April - sick


April has Cushing's Disease (diagnosed 11/2011)
Medication available on the 23rd of November. Hopefully it helps the symptoms (see below). Probably a tumor in the pituitary. Tests and medication are very expensive.

I like this explanation on the web: "Dogs gain weight, lose hair, urinate in the house, and make owners begin to prematurely consider euthanasia. Yet Cushing's disease is treatable and that treatment can result in a longer, more comfortable life for the dog and its owner". NO votes on this one. More symptoms below from vet site.

The most common symptoms include:
• increased/excessive water consumption (polydipsia)
• increased/excessive urination (polyuria)
• urinary accidents in previously housetrained dogs
• increased/excessive appetite (polyphagia)
• appearance of food stealing/guarding, begging, trash dumping, etc.
• sagging, bloated, pot-bellied appearance
• weight gain or its appearance, due to fat redistribution
• loss of muscle mass, giving the appearance of weight loss
• bony, skull-like appearance of head
• exercise intolerance, lethargy, general or hind-leg weakness
• new reluctance to jump on furniture or people
• excess panting, seeking cool surfaces to rest on
• symmetrically thinning hair or baldness (alopecia) on torso
• slow regrowth of hair after clipping
• thin, wrinkled, fragile, and/or darkly pigmented skin
• easily damaged/bruised skin that heals slowly
• hard, calcified lumps in the skin (calcinosis cutis)
• susceptibility to infections (especially skin and urinary)
• diabetes, pancreatitis, seizures
