Update on the Bushman
I took today off to take Ambush in to the vet’s. Excellent news! The vet was doing the happy dance. =) His glucose level remains within reasonable levels (189) even after one week of being off of insulin. She said to bring him back in for a checkup every two weeks. If he stays at…
