Mum is not to well with her Lungs again, so today she had to call the Nurse
Well I know all the Nurses and they are great, they always stroke me and talk to me
Well the Nurse that came today, I had never seen before, so that was it I had to check her out and make sure she was not going to take Mum away
So I sniffed her bag and yep she had all the stuff that the others have, I then had to sniff her but I had to stand on my Back Legs to sniff her hair, she was sitting on the Floor so that was not to hard as she had long Hair to, Mum told me to behave ( I hate having to behave) then she got all the gadgets out of her bag and I watched her very carefully, then I jumped on the Settee next to Mum, the Nurse put that thing on Mum's Finger, so I put my Paw on it, only to be told by Mum that this was cheating, that Hannah, the Nurse, only wants Mum's Oxygen Level and Mum's and Gissi's, Hannah laughed at me, but Mum is such a Spoil Sport, she moved my Paw of, I was only trying to help Mum
then comes out that thing, that put round Mum's Arm, something to do with blood and pressure, well I was getting up to sniff it, but the silly thing bleeped at me, when I put my Paw on it and that made me jump so I barked at it, how dare it bleep at me, Mum told me to quit now and either sit still or to go on my chair out of the way of mischief, Hannah was laughing, so I went on my Chair, barked at Mum and threw her a few mad looks
I mean how was it my fault that the silly thing decided to bleep at me, that made me jump and that is why I barked, I didn't know I had messed up the settings and Mum had to have it all done again
Well anyway the good thing is Hannah did not take Mum away so she can come again tat is no problem
Ok we are of to bed now, I have told Mum it is way past her Bed Time now so I will drag her to bed
But I do like the new Nurse, I like all the Nurses that come to see Mum they don't take Mum away, not like those Men with the big car and blue Light did 2 years ago
Goodnight all..........hugs from Gissi

Hello Purple I love it when you pop in to see us
Well they can't take Mum away I mean who will cuddle me, love me, feed me, ok I would miss Mum and I love her very much I do not want anyone to take her away ever again
But Mike (Mum's Son) said he would come here and look after me and so would Mel (Mum's Daughter) they would get on the Train and come and take care of me for Mum, but that is not the same I want Mum with me.......Love you big Hugs and Kisses back to you, Gissi xxxx

Hi Sweetheart! Is always great to hear from you too, and your mum. That is great that if mum did have to go somewhere that mum's son or daughter or both would come and take care of you. I know you really love her and don't want her to go believe me I don't either! All my love to you and your mum! Do you remember my shihtzu Katie? She says hi ... errr should I say Woof Ruff Woof!

I'm so glad that they didn't take your Mum away Gissi
Last night there were sirens and meowmy went and looked outside. She came in and told me that they were down the street and not at the house on the corner like last week. She told me that she THINKS this is the ex-husband of a former co-worker of hers - Angie, I think she said. She also said he was old - he was all grown up when she was a little girl - that sounds kind of creepy to me, so I'm glad he's an ex-husband.
Yeah, we haven't had the men with the big car come since Maggiepie went away. I like going over there, she's got sprongy things for me to pull at the "magic rubber band" and the "coily thingie" attached to the phone. I like to make her crazy making them snap - I was afraid after meowmy pulled my teeth I couldn't do it anymore, but I can!
Hee hee! Taj

GOOD WORK GISSI!
You have been so good, making sure the nurse was OK and checking out her "goodies" bag, that you need to be rewarded.
You can have another chapter of the book tonight. Make sure you keep the hood of the torch at the top so the light doesn't bother mum - and make sure you take special note of this chapter because it has some new friendly tricks in it.

Hey Auntie Cloud thank you for this and I do make sure that the hood is over the Torch since you gave me this I have not heard from Mum "Gissi turn that torch of now" hehehe it is because she does not know I have it on
Big Hugs to you Auntie Cloud and from Mum to always .....your little Nephew Gissi

Hey Gissi! I'm really glad that you liked Mum's new nurse!
It would be really great if the two of you could get along
for Mum's sake! It would sure make things alot eaiser on her!
Sometimes you have to understand Gissi, that you just have to
behave yourself even if you don't really want to, just because!
You need to do these things for Mum, just like she sometimes
does thing just for you! Come on now Gis, we are counting on
you to take good care of Mum! Be a good boy and do what Mum
needs you to do! We all love you so much! Love and Hugs from,
Opal/Leslie, Star and Luna

Hiya Gissi..it's been awhile since I've responded to yours and mums discussions. Not that I'm avoiding you 2 just been busy with other stuff.
So glad to hear your mom wasn't toted off in that big car but, if they do, it's because you mom really needs to go to that big building with all the nice doctors in it for extra help with her health. Good thing you kept a close eye on that new nurse but long as she passes your test, she is good to go with me as well.
Take care, Gissi and hugs to you both!!!

Hey blackbriar I have missed you and Mum has to
I am just happy that Mum is home with me and yes no worries the Nurse is fine and she looked after Mum really well but they are chasing the test now as these Tablets are not helping Mum so they need to know what to give to Mum
Big Hugs

I know you were just tryng to help and it's a good thing that everyone understood where you were coming from....I don't blame you....I wouldn't like new people coming into my house either..until they earned my trust! Good for you Gissi for being such a good helper and for watching over mum when the rest of us can't!

I am glad that the nurse will come and help mum, so she can stay home with you. It has to bother you a bit Gissi. It sounds as if Hannah has a nice temper, though, and I can just picture her in my mind, laughing and smiling with you and mum.

Hi Gaby,
How are you feeling now sweetie? I'm sorry you had a bad day or so. I'm so sorry I can't remember exactly what is wrong but do the nurses come out on a regular basis, or just when you are having a rough time? Do you have oxygen at home that you have to use? I have a tank at home and also one that I have to fill with liquid oxygen for when I go out. We've been having cold to freezing temps. here in Florida lately and I've noticed how it affects my breathing. Don't you live in the snow? Well, you and Gissi get some rest and I hope you feel much better in the morning. Hugss

Hi Leenie, no I just have to call them when I get bad with the lungs and Chest as I am still able to do things myself and I am determinant that I will for a long time lol
My Oxygen is actually at a good level so I do not need it but I do have Tablets and Inhalers that I have to take daily, but it has been so cold and freezing here I knew I would end up with an Infection, but they are getting a bit less since they have put me on Tablets to stop getting the Infections so much I used to get over one and then a week later it was back again, so my Consultant put me on these Tablets and they are working, as I am not getting the Infections as much as I used to
I had a pretty bad Night but I suppose I have to give the Antibiotics a chance to set in
Please take care of yourself Leenie and keep warm there
Big Hugs to you, Gaby
