Kitties!! The thing other than mom's wrist that I was even more concerned about was mommy's leg. She had a rip snortin' infection called cellulitis all up and down the right leg. It inflamed the leg way out of proportion and made walking difficult. The pain level was high enough for powerful medications.
Her visit to her GP yesterday (orthopedic surgeon today at 2) was a good one in that he pronounced the infection vastly improved. Still there mind you but being routed out by the antibiotic. So far, three weeks worth. I loved on mommy bunches and whispered kitty words in her ear all the while we were in bed and she was asleep. I fink it's working.
The photo is of me being ernest and as a caretaker. Mommy can't hold a camera, focus or do the shutter release so all my pictures were already taken. I want that cast...which is up to her bicep, OFF! More scritches that way. ♥

Good Morning Admiral, I am glad you answered the question I had about mom. I am so happy her leg is getting better.
xoxo
That is a nasty cellulitis you Mom has. Hoping it continues to clear all the way up. We will look forward to hearing what the orthopedic doctor says about when her cast can come off. You need your skritchies NOW!
So happy Mom is getting better. I know she misses the skritchies too. You keep up the good care.
Keep up the good work Admiral. It's obvious your care and attention is working.
:( Been so worried... Glad it is clearing-so frightening. Hugs for your mommy, hope the antibiotics arent making her too sick <3
We still have your mom in our purrayers, Admiral. And we are so sorry to hear about the nasty cellulitis. We hope that infection will be gone very soon AND we hope her wrist will be healed soon. You keep taking good care of your mom!!!
fanks you furriends human and kitty
mom
So Admiral, I guess you are a scritch free zone while mommy is otherwise preoccupied! You will be in danger of scritch overdose once she is unfettered.
Lots of cyber scritches from me, but please don't tell Austin. He is a scritch fiend.
PS Cyberhugs to Mom from me the mere human xx
Sweet Admiral you are just being such a good nurse to your mama. We are very happy to hear that her leg is getting better and we hope she will be all well very soon. Hugs and nose kisses
Admiral, we're glad that the nasty infection is leaving your mom's leg. Give her a headbutt from us!
Darlin' Admiral, we know the excellent care you've given your mom has helped. We continue to purray for her and for you.....we love ya both so very much.
Admiral, I am sure that the surgeon told your Mom to keep her leg elevated above her head as much as possible!!! There's only one antibiotic that my Mom takes when she gets cellulitis. Your Mom can email her if she is interested.

You are being a great kitty nurse. We are glad the one v-e-t visit went well and hope the one today does too!!
Gees, Admiral, your poor mom! We're continuing to send purrs and universal Light. Having to see an orthopedic surgeon doesn't sound good at all, we'll cross our paws for luck!
OMC 3 weeks on antibiotics—TW would be dead. I'm glad your Mom is getting better and hope she gets a good report at the surgeons today. Healing purrs and purrayers for your Mom and you too. xoxo
Admiral, you are a wonderful nurse! Hope your mom continues to feel better!
You are an A+ nurse Admiral. Good Job and we hope your mom is waaay better too.
That is a beautiful picture sweet Admiral! I sure am glad that nasty infection is some better, your purrs are working wonders!
We're so glad the infection is leaving your mommy's leg! We hope today's doctor's visit goes well too. We know your helping your mommy get better with your nursing skills Admiral! We're sending purrs and hugs to both of you!
Ms. Admiral; you certainly deserve a huge promotion for all your selfless actions (although I don't think you can get higher than an Admiral in the Navy can you?).
Sending our love and purrs to your dear mum & her bum leg!
xoxo

We just hate to think what she would have done without you there to take care of her, Admiral!
Purrs,

Oh! Poor Mommeh! We hadded No Idea she was having so many yucky problems. It's pretty sad when a broken wrist is the least of your worries! It is Very Good that the infection is clearing and I and the Human will both purr real hard for her.
Meanwhile, my sweet, I enjoyed our visit last night. I'll pop over later with some tinned salmon and tuna juice. I can't wait to groom your pretty cheeks! Purrs & nosetaps!
You are such a loving girl and I'm sure your Mummy loves you SO SO MUCH for that. Just reading about the way you are helping your Mummy heal brings a HUGE smile to my face.
Boomer says your extra loving purrs helped him heal too. *kiss* *KISS* from your Boomer.
Those are certainly nasty injuries your human (and you) have had to deal with! I bet she is glad you are there, helping to nurse her back to health. Paws up that the infection is pretty much gone - now it's time to get to work on that cast!
First, what a beautiful picture of you, Admiral.
Second, I hope your mom gets much better very very soon. Thank you for taking care of her.
Miss Admiral, we is purring big for you AND your Mom! We're glad her infection is receding...it takes time and we're sure you are doing the best nursing that you can.
AND, are you eating your treats?
What would your Mommy do without your help? It sounds like she really needs you!!!

Mom says we'll be purraying and praying for your Mommy to get well soon. We are so glad the infection is getting better. My Mom had this infection several years ago and she said it takes time to heal. Keep nursing Mommy, sweet Admiral and she'll soon be well.
