Tentative good news

Basette, the little black wonder cat

Here is some good news, at least! Basette went back to the vet’s this morning. Her glucose levels were still high this morning and afternoon. However, after she recieved her insulin, her glucose levels plummeted from over 500 down to almost half that!!

Woohoo! If Basette was here, I’d party. The vet was esctatic. I was delighted. We’re not jinxing anything, though, and hoping that it wasn’t a fluke.

In all of her prior glucose tests, Basette has never responded with that much of a significant drop in glucose levels.

It is a real start, and hopefully some progress for the Little Black Wonder Cat(tm).
