River: Update 2 on Colleen

[mdlbear]

Colleen took a turn for the worse yesterday between breakfast, which she nibbled at, and lunch, by which time she was very "out of it" and apparently in pain (although I think some of that may have been pure frustration when she couldn't find words.

Apparently a severe infection can have that effect, and can strike quickly -- this is apparently a lot like toxic shock. She has at least three highly-resistant superbugs -- they identified the third this morning.

The kids are coming to visit Saturday -- the soonest they could get here.

Colleen is a stubborn old cat, though. Wish her luck.

May Bast, who guides and guards all cats, whether they be four- or two-legged, heal and protect Colleen and give her strength!

My very best GoodThoughts(TM) to you and Colleen both. Stubborn old cats are the best kind.

And to the bugs, super or otherwise? MEOW, DAMMIT!

All the hope that she can get over this quickly, and that as little frustration can strike both her and you as possible.
