@rose1985, I'm sorry to read about your sister's passing. My condolences. In regards to your son, it sounds like your tough love plan could be a helpful strategy. I hope he starts back on those morning meds again.

Hoping your kitty's health improves with the insulin. I have heard of many cats developing diabetes. I wonder why. I guess they're not that unlike humans, right?

Congrats on your weight loss! I know that if I lost 18 lbs I'd feel better physically, too. I need more stamina. It's too late to get that for Vienna, but I have a trip to the mountains coming up next month. Even 5 lbs off would likely help a little.
