Hubby has started planning for goats here. Has about 2 acres marked off. If i don't start doing better, there will be no point getting them. I am struggling to care for what i have.
Tomorrow is my clear liquids day, then i start taking that awful stuff to clean out my guts. Colonoscopy the next day. Sigh.

They are only a year old. A RIR, Black Sexlink, and an EE. So good to hear chicken sounds again. Our son that moved in with us to help out with things that are going on, says, mom, you need your Chickens. It's a happy place for you when you have them. So, have to admit, I'm pretty happy all right. May not keep them past Oct. Just thinking summer time from now on. -- Change of subject. Our daughter in law that is with us now, has been a huge help to me lately. Have been going to the Nephrologist with my little sis...our daughter in law drives me. Lisa has been getting more sick. And sadly, talking about wanting to go home...points to the heavens. Says, I miss mom. When the Dr. heard that, and watched her be sick in his office, yet again says, it's time. Not sure if the fishula is ready, but will talk with the surgeon ..who we go see tomorrow. He says, if the surgeon says it's ready, great. If not, he wants her to go that very day, to get the port put in, and start dialysis on Friday. I was screaming hallelujah in my mind. She doesn't look like our same Lisa. She's lost Soo much weight. No appetite..can't keep it down with just a few bites, Diarrhea, very very tired. After she threw up, she said in the most sad little voice, I don't feel good. I sure hope the dialysis helps her feel better more often than not. I know how it can go, have heard . My other sister and I have talked. We are giving Lisa this chance. If down the road, she is still not doing well enough to want to keep going, it will be her choice as to keep going. It was her choice yesterday. We've told her nothing but good about it, except for the part where she has to lay in a bed for hours. I so hope she will feel better.

Is the new bowel clearing stuff available to you yet? I think it was approved in the Fall of last year
