So, here I am again, sitting in the waiting room of the V-E-T. I knew something was up this morning. Mommy was trying to act nonchalant, but she was obviously gathering up some of my things and bringing in the carrier from the garage.
She says that we may get some really good news today. Last month, I came here and spent the day to have a glucose curve. That means the people monitor me all day and take my blood every hour or so to see how I respond to my food and insulin injections. Well, after that time, they told Mommy she could cut back on how much insulin she was giving me. They said to come back today, to have another curve done. And, they said if I'm doing even better this time, I may be able to stop the injections all together. Apparently, sometimes kitties with diabetes can go into remission, and their body starts making its own insulin again. Hopefully, that's what's happening with me.
