My poor kitty Cat Rocky is a sick baby. Late last night he began passing blood all over my Apartment. His meowing was loud and constant. Nothing I did could sooth his agony. My heart pained for him but He did settle down enough to sleep I think through the night. I covered my couch and Chair (his favourite places to sleep at night) with Towels in case the urinated/bled during the night. Glen took him to the Vets early this morning. I'm relieved that he is there and they will hopefully find out what's wrong. He may have to spend the night there.
New decisions were made yesterday regarding Ottawa. I'm going to go there soon and stay in the Retirement Home that I lived in for 6 years before coming to Owen Sound. I will take Rocky to Ottawa with me. Once there I'll set out to find an apartment.
This morning contacted the Moving Company I'll hire to move me and booked an Assessment Appointment for Jan 27th. This makes things real and tangible for me. I'm very happy that this is coming. I am also waiting for a call from the Marketing Director to discuss costs, availability etc. for me to stay in a bachelor or preferably 1 bedroom furnished room for a month or maybe 2 months will I try to find and secure an apartment. I may just stay there and have Glen work with the movers to move my stuff. So many things to co-ordinate but it's all good that I'm pushing to keep moving forward to completion. My moral this morning is so much better than yesterday because of this.
So much to do, plan and implement but this is what is keeping going. The dormancy of progress and action was paralysing me so profoundly coupled with winter isolation was/is killing me and causing to fall painfully into depression. Yesterday really brought my state of mind to the forefront of Glen's mind. I was reaching out to him with need and as always he was right there to help and support me.
It's now evening and so much has happened today. Rocky is home with 5 different medications I have to make sure he gets every 12 hours, Canned wet special food and absolutely none of his normal food, Lots of fresh water and watching his poop and Urine clumps for blood and/or diareaa which he now has. Call the Vet is any of these problems don't improve or get worse. I reminds me of all the things I needed to do when my Kids where infants and young toddlers. Not much different really.
My brother has put a hold on a bachelor room in the Retirement home. I'll be staying at for a month while I try to acquire a 1 bedroom apartment. My furniture will stay here until a decision is made by me and my brother and sister. Everything is once again out of my control and in the hands of Kelsey and Glen to figure out when is the best time to go home, how to get Rocky and I there and where I'll be living BUT at least there is once again some movement to achieve what we all want - getting moved and set up in Ottawa. YAHOO
I guess that is the gist of all that's been happening her today. I'm tired and a bit overwhelmed but I am happy and content with the direction we all are heading
It will be interesting to see what stuff will happen tomorrow but as of right now I`m quite confident that I`ll be just fine. My depressive state has greatly improved today and that is really a wonderful feeling to have. I pray and hope that it continues onward and upward and eventually ban it from my mine and be a normal healthy functioning cripple that I know I can be.
I am very grateful to all the people in my life trying their damnedest to help me. I am grateful that Rocky will in time recover his health and get back to his loving and affectionate ways. I am grateful for the energy and determination to get the ball rolling and subsequently controlling my depression so that I could complete the tasks I needed to today. I am grateful God that I am alive and can appreciate all these blessings that are happening to and around me.
