    Leo is celebrating his second anniversary after SRT. Two years ago, I drove him to Ft.Collins, Colorado and he got SRT (radiation) for his Acromegaly (pituitary tumor). It was a big trip, expensive but life saving. He is pretty healthy these days. His insulin usage has gone down dramatically:
    - 36.0 units/day in Sept 2016 -->> SRT week of 9/20/2016
    - 4.75 units/day in Sept 2018

    I remain eternally grateful for everyone's help here on FDMB. Leo probably would not be here without your help. THANK YOU.:bighug::bighug::bighug:

    Leo's Acro Journey <<<--- link

    This could be a long thread about his problems. I prefer to look at happy things.
    - Leo loves cooked chicken
    - He is best buds with Little Dude, and gives leg loving to everyone
    - and last week he caught and ate a cricket on the porch, so he loves crickets too:eek:

    Here's to my sweet kitteh Leo. With more luck, and some attentive care, Leo will be with us for months or years to come. A few of my favorite pics from this year.

    I love the two year SRT anniversaries. :cool: When I asked at CSU, they said the average life span after SRT was two years, so celebrate beating the odds Leo. :woot::woot: Maybe mom and dad will give you a cooked chicken cake.

    Thanks everybody, for the ongoing help and encouragement. Leo would thank you too, but he would have to wake up first.
