Yes, I know — a picture that’s almost identical to the one I showed yesterday. A healthy baby boy who has been named Cameron was born late yesterday afternoon, so this little quilt is now named Cameron’s Windmills, the label was completed and appliqued on and it’s ready to go.
I’m not sure how much I’ll be posting this week. As well, visiting blogs and replying to comments will probably not be something I’ll be doing much of over the next few days as Lester has had another small stroke. He’s had two strokes before now, both of which he recovered from quite remarkably well. This time? This time I’m not so sure what the outcome will be. When we left here to go to the vet’s on Monday, I wasn’t feeling very optimistic. However, the vets gave him a painkiller as well as an appetite stimulant. By the time I sat down to write this late Monday night, there was a very small improvement so we’re hoping that he can bounce back this time as well. For now, we’re syringe feeding him and Smudge.
This picture of Lester was taken last week. He was much more restrained than Smudge — didn’t feel he had to get on the board when we were trying to take a picture of the Rainbow Flower.
Smudge was checking on Lester throughout the evening on Monday. Then he stretched out for a snooze.
Glad the baby is here and healthy. You and your ailing kitties will be in my thoughts and prayers this week. No need for replies.
