Great news !!!

By Saturday night, I couldn't stand the way I was feeling and was trying everything I could think of in my pill suitcase to help. Nothing could get it right. Went to the ER and within an hour, the doctor and nurse team had my heart converted from Atrial Fibrillation to Atrial Flutter by injecting a bolus of adenosine. It stopped my heart for about 10 seconds and got me to Atrial Flutter. Then they gave me another heart medication that completely got me out of the flutter. Cardizem? I just keep learning about ER medicine and medicine as I go. The doc admitted me into the hospital for 1-3 days under the care of intensivists. I was feeling so good though after the conversion, that after an hour I decided to go home and get on with the plan of moving back to Ohio with the people who had come to get me. Haylee and her daughter, Katie, stayed with me in the ER. It was nice to have someone with me. (Before, I have always gone to the ER on my own.) I am feeling a whole lot better. In many ways, better than I have in 3 years. Whatever they did to my heart, needed to be done a very long time ago. It has finally regained a normal steady rhythmn. Go Cindi o'h! love, Cindi o'h

this is Cindi o'h speaking// Well, It was close. I would have loved to move to Hawaii, but another friend on Ohau convinced me that the volcanic fog (vog) might be too much for my already compromised lungs. With sorrow, I had to say aloha to Michele and the idea of lounging in Paradise. While thinking about moving to Hawaii, Haylee offered she and dh would come to Minnesota to pack me up to get me moved to Hawaii. Since that fell through, Haylee convinced me to give Ohio a try. There is no vog in Ohio! Only lots of love and a family that will help me to get settled in a new town, apartment and life. Can you believe it? All from internet friendship and the lcsc message board. Here I am, my first 12 hours in Ohio! love, Cindi o'h

Hi EVERYBODY!!! It's me, Cindi o'h! I haven't figured out how to log onto my own account just yet! I am in Dayton, Ohio with Haylee and her kids, husband, dogs, cats and Miss Luna! They came to get me Saturday, loaded up the U-haul and brought me all the way to Ohio to be a part of their extended family! I am Auntie Cindi o'h now. lol... The trip and moving was a bit rugged on my poor body so I have had to rest up and get a second wind. I did pretty good though. More later... Sorry to keep you all waiting for ice. I will get back behind that bar and keep your glasses filled pronto..must Carry On! (I do adore all of you and your imaginings!) love Cindi o'h

good morning good morning...! this is Cindi o'h here. Little Miss Luna and I became a reality yesterday... MONDAY... I waited a very long time to meet her. She is sooooo pretty, tiny and sweet. Please visit her web pages if you haven't already. Now that we have met, I have a few other posts to attend to. love, Miss Cindi...(luna's Mom) http://www.freewebs.com/lunakitty05/

We do share different opinions here. I have not just made my choice on the fact of Baylee dying. I did much research on the issue of spaying and nuetering and have found this to not be such a rare thing for a pet to die this way. This is a matter that I can not do this to another one of my pets its not worth the risk to me. I also can assure you that the people who I have given the kittens to are not going to just throw them in the back yard when the grow into cats. I know these people and trust them or I never would of given them a kitten. I am sorry to hear of the loss of your cat. I do know how painful it is to lose a pet. I know that there is not one single day that goes by that my heart does not ache over the loss of Baylee. I am also sorry to everyone here at lchelp for even letting this topic get started where it does not belong. I think it may be the time for me to say goodbye. I am very sensitive and my husband has noticed a huge change in me since I became a member here. When there is a loss or someone is not doing well it really gets me down. Sometimes to the point I can not even sleep at night. He would ask me why do you keep posting if it upsets you to the degree it does. I would tell him because I care so much for everyone there and felt I could relate in a small way after losing both my parents to this beast. I think after today it sunk in more to me. I have to leave for my husband and kids they need the old me back again. I guess it hit me that not only may I not be a responsible pet owner. I am not being a responsible wife or mother. I do really love and care about all of you and will continue to pray for each and every one of you. Katie, My walk for lchelp is still a go for November and I still may need to get some info from you. I have the location and a friend who works for a local tv station who has been helping me organize the walk. We also have a few companies who have said they would be happy to be sponsors. I hope its a success and alot of monies can be earned. Haylee

I know this really is not the place for a debate on spaying and neutering are pets. I have thought hard rather to even post a reply. I did finaly come to the decision that I did need to reply. After I lost Baylee it rocked my world hard it came 11 months after losing my mom to lung cancer and a few months after losing eight of Baylee's pups. I spent alot of time investing the risk of spaying and nuetering and found it is alot more dangerous and risky than people are let to believe. Infact my third saint bernard Angel also lost her mother during a routine spaying. This is not as rare of thing as many may believe. I just do not have it in my heart at the time to chance losing another pet. This was sure not planned and was a freak accident that the mother cat became pregnet again. We were in the process of moving and she managed to get outside. Does that make me a not responsible pet owner? I would say yes if I was not making sure every one of the kittens were not going to very loving caring homes. I do make sure of this and like I said before most of the kittens I still get updates on how they are doing. Maybe I am wrong in my thinking but when Baylee, left me that morning I promised her it would all be ok and I would see her tomorrow. I lied to her and never got to see her again. I feel guilty to this day and miss her as much today as the day she left me. It is just something I feel is to risky for me to try again at this time. Haylee

This is a web-site my daughter made for me. I hope this will explain more why I have not had my cat spayed yet. I also want to let you know that ever kitten has went to a good home. I have made sure of that and know where ever cat is and I still get updates on most of them. Haylee http://www.freewebs.com/destinynard05/
