CRussel, Hitch, Dennis. Thank you for sharing your stories of lost. Thank you for your sympathies.

Hitch, you gave some really good advice. You are right some men just can't deal with it. Maisy took a bad turn last night. I'm fighting with my sister to give me a ride. She's on Hubby's side. Although hubby isn't fighting me anymore on it. He saw last night just how sick she is.

Sis isn't the brightest. She's gone off on me for giving Maisy Pepcid so she could eat and hold at least something down. Last night Maisy was running a fever and Sis told me to give her Motrin. I immediately told her that you don't give cats ibuprofen it's toxic but she wouldn't believe me. I even read from two reliable pet websites that confirm it was poison and she was still mad that I wouldn't give Maisy something that'd would harm her. This is what I have to deal with.

Pepcid is perfectly fine to give for nausea for cats. Vets say it's okay but my sister refuses to accept that. Anytime Maisy get sicks she has yelled at me that it's my fault for giving her Pepcid even though Maisy had these symptoms before we was told to give her Pepcid for tummy issues. When I can get Maisy to take Pepcid she's holds her food down better and seems happier but getting her to take it is near impossible now. She's learn how to hides it in her mouth or throat I can't tell which and pretends to swallow. I think this is her way of telling me to let go. The pill is so tiny. 1/4 of a tablet. Chasing it with water does not work. I've stopped trying due to how hysterical she becomes when I try to give it to her.

I've had very little sleep and now waiting for my sister to wake up which isn't till 10AM.
I'm fighting for Maisy's right for peace. I know I'm doing the right thing but convincing people around me has been more than I can deal with.

Dennis you are right. This hasn't been good for me. I've never been more stressed out and it's taken a toll on my health, mentally and physically. I'm tired of being made a villain due to uneducated people that my family is. Hubby I can understand where he is coming from but the others have no excuse. I've spent the last ten months dealing with her sick and it's been really bad the last four months to where I've had to hold constant vigils. I can't remember the last time I had more than four hours of uninterrupted sleep. It's been months. I pray today Maisy and I both find the peace we both need.
