Jen: Haven't been on much lately but I was just stunned to hear about Lucas! I am so sorry!

Yes, the depo injections are basically a steriod/prednisone shot. Josie gets them for her asthma. She gets one called "depo-medrol 20mg" . . . every 4-12 weeks.

I hope that it does help Lucas and maybe keeps him comfortable & around a little while longer!

{{{Hugs}}} to you & *scritches* to Lucas!!!

You're all in our prayers!!!

edit: I just wanted to add that I never really saw any side effects in Josie from the injections, other than her increased appetite around the time of the injection. Of course prednisone does that to anybody! Kind of hypes her up a little too. Nothing bad though.
