Granny's gone and done it again

Have you taken Diflucan? Fungal infections can be stubborn, and they will be worse if you are diabetic or have a compromised immune system.

welcome to Grannys!
yes, diflucan every day for years now. 200 mg.
prednisone for many years as well.
I do tend to run low on my HR as well. Just not that low.

Oops, before I go, I want to post something and I don't know where to put it but this is my stomping ground so I will put it here. Maybe someone can use it someday, I don't know, it's kind of totally random.

So Sammy, the younger of my two Shelties, has the bad habit of snatching food if you offer it from your hand, and you're liable to lose a finger. I don't like this, of course, so I wanted to find a way to teach him to take food gently from my hand. I've found two ways. The first way is for small, dry treats. I hide them in my closed hand and he has to kind of dig them out with his snout as I slowly open my hand. This has helped a lot. The second method is for bigger treats. I make the dogs chicken meatballs* and freeze them. They are about an inch in diameter, so I want to be able to offer them between thumb and forefinger - without, as I say, losing a digit! So I've been offering them in a pair of metal tongs. Sammy has learned that it's not comfortable to chomp down on this, and also that he doesn't get the treat if he does. He's learning to grasp it delicately and then I will let it go. I say, "easy, easy," as he takes it. I'm going to continue this for the rest of this week, then try it with my fingers. Progress report to follow!

*old chicken used for broth, shredded, mixed with brown rice, nutritional yeast and coconut oil.

Hey, I'm also working with my young Bella for the same reason. I go ahead and put the treat in my fingers..offer it to her with my hand sideways while I say..don't you bite mama. lol..she knows what that means because I use it when we play. She doesn't get the treat until I see/ feel her opening her mouth gently. She's doing pretty good.

You are not nobody! You're a special lady!

Yes! She knows better than to say something like that. What were you thinking Blue??!

I guess a neighbor went over there and took the dogs. Owner doesnt want them. She called the po po and they wont do anything so she is asking others to take them.

Cap, your studio is looking very good!
Wishing, are you the one with the beautiful fish? It's gorgeous! Almost makes me want to run out and get one!

Cynthia's new betta. Granny said it was a koi betta. I've never seen one like that. Beautiful!
It's too cold in our house to keep fish.
Maybe not quite this cold...

In this county she'd be facing charges in court.

Thanks, Cap! I meant I am nobody with any kind of real medical knowledge or expertise, sorry! And thanks!

Wow, good for you! When I started this with Sammy, doing what you're doing would have been a truly dangerous proposition! But we're getting there!

Yes! She knows better than to say something like that. What were you thinking Blue??!

It was past my bedtime, so I wasn't thinking very clearly, obviously! See my comments to Cap, above!
