PT Prayers please for Kim/Kimlovescats

I contacted Kim yesterday, as I was concerned since I hadn't seen her on PT lately.
I found out tonight, that she had been to her doctor's today and she has bronchitis.
Unfortunately, because of her weakened lungs and asthma, when she has any type of Upper Respiratory illness, she has to stay away from her furbabies.

So please let the power of PT prayers work once again that she gets well soon, so she can once again, enjoy the company of her kitties.

Prayers and positive thoughts on the way for you my friend that you get yourself well real soon.

((((((HUGS))))))

Oh no, that is awful. I can't imagine being sick and not being able to have the comfort of *the healing paw*. These Pet Talk Prayers will have to do double duty.

Poor Kim {{{{HUGS}}}} I know how you're feeling... I get brochitis bad every year that ends up as a URI too. You feel just plain miserable and pathetic. Take care of yourself and drink lots of hot tea I swear it works!

Thank you Lorraine ....
and everyone, for your get well wishes! I guess I should explain my "weakened lungs".... lol! I'm not sure if I was a member at PT or not when this happened, but a couple of years ago I got really sick with double pneumonia. I spent 8 days in the hospital, was home for 4 then went back into the hospital for another 5 days. During my short 4 days back at home, I had been sleeping with my kitties! DUH! Well, because of the condition of my lungs, and my allergies and asthma .... that caused me to have a bad asthma attack and go back into the hospital for the next 5 days. Then when I came home, I was on oxygen, and could only move around my house as far as my tubing would reach! I had to stay completely away from all of my cats, and I cried and cried when I watched Animal Planet in my hospital room. At that time, all of my doctors (a team of them were working with me because my pneumonia was resistant to meds) advised / warned me to get rid of all of my cats!!! When I got home from the hospital, and after I was off of the oxygen tank, I had to wear a mask whenever I visited my kitties. Finally, I was "well enough" to take off the masks and just live on my inhalers, etc.

With each new infection and trip to my allergist, I get the same lectures and warnings ..... and now since that hospital stay, I have had my diabetes diagnosis. So ... now we know that my immunities are even more weakened. When all of this happened (the double pneumonia , etc.) is when my hubby built my garage enclosure for the cats. However, I have gradually let them stay in the house more and more .... big mistake. I am now back to either they have to stay in the garage, or they can't stay.

So, now you get "the rest of the story" as to WHY I had to give up my fosters and my rescue work. Now, I just pray that I can stay healthy enough to maintain my kitty family as it stands right now.

Thanks for the prayers,
Kim

Kim, I'm so sorry to hear you've been so sick.

We know you love your kitties dearly, but sweetie, you need to think of yourself first. After all, what would little Jenna do if anything happened to her Grammy? I can't imagine having to give up my kitties because of my own health, but if it came down to live or die, unfortunately they'd have to go. :(

Do not feel guilty in the least about having to give up your fosters. You've done so much for so many kitties that your place in kitty heaven is definitely assured.

{{{hugs}}} to you, and please take care of yourself!
