I'm very happy for you Amy & Mark! What a rare occurrence for a kitty on insulin for so long to go OTJ. Sorry for the length of the video but this event was quite remarkable! :mrgreen:

 

Congratulations Trixie, Amy & Mark!

Take time to enjoy celebrating. This is so wonderful.

Great video CD.

 

CONGRATULATIONS
TRIXIE,
AMY & MARK!!!



Enjoy life at the Falls!​

It's always great to see someone defy the odds and Trixie is clearly a very special girl. Only one word of warning -- this doesn't mean you get to disappear! I hope you'll post and keep us up to date on Trixie and all the kitties and you.

(And what is Trixie's OTJ date?)

 

CONGRATULATIONS TRIXIE!!!

Welcome to the Falls!!!

:RAHCAT :RAHCAT dancing_cat flip_cat flip_cat dancing_cat flip_cat flip_cat dancing_cat :RAHCAT :RAHCAT​

WOW! Congrats to all of you, and especially you Miss Trixie. Amazing story yu ahve ther Trixie. I am so rated that you can now officially be an OTJ kitty, FREAKING AWESOME!!! Enjoy this very special day. party well. I know you deserve it.

And I agree with Sienne - you can't disappear. please keep us updated on the kitties and the both of you.



CD: Awesome video!

 

CONGRATULATIONS, AMY, TRIXIE & MARK!!!! YOU DID IT!!!!!!​

:mrgreen: :RAHCAT dancing_cat flip_cat party_cat :mrgreen: :RAHCAT flip_cat party_cat :mrgreen:​

I agree with the others...

DON'T BE DISAPPEARING ON US, YA HEAR? :lol:​

Great job, guys!!! I really don't know how long Trixie was on insulin, but you definitely defied the odds. Seeing you guys defy those odds after such a long time makes me believe that perhaps there's still hope for Blackie. WTG!!!!!! :mrgreen:

 

CONGRATULATIONS ON MAKING IT TO THE FALLS TRIXIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​

Oh wow, how exciting for you guys! I could not be any happier for all of you ... such hard work and dedication the past few years, and not just dealing with diabetes either! I hope you guys can take a deep breath, know you made it to the falls, and enjoy this P A R T YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

 

OMG OMG, my heart is pounding!! Amy, I'm so excited and happy for you, the hairs are standing up on my arms!! TMI? :lol:

This is a day I've been so hoping for. Congratulations Amy, Mark and Trixie!! :RAHCAT

 

Thank you, Carolyn, for the beautiful video.

And thank you, Lantus Land, for...everything. Trixie would not be here today if it weren't for each and every one of you, and I would not have the confidence to care for her without your amazing knowledge, support, and love. And not only Trixie...how many times have you guys helped me through tough times with my civvies? There is NOTHING like the power of LantusLand Prayers!

We may be spread out across the globe, but Lantus Land is the truest definition of "family" that I know. Trixie's diabetes has truly been a blessing, for without it, I wouldn't have an incredible bond with her, and I wouldn't have you!

Honestly, the thought of disappearing, the thought of not doing a daily condo for Trix, and thought of not visiting my LL family every day makes me quite teary eyed. And, because the circumstances of her OTJ are so unusual, I don't think I can stop testing on a daily basis - I do have to admit that while we are blessed with this OTJ thing, I want to be on top of things. So, I'm afraid you're stuck with me!

The last day I shot insulin was April 22nd, since that was the first really bad day of her pancreatitis attack...I guess we could consider that her OTJ date, but it's really a blurry line since we didn't follow the traditional OTJ path.

Soooooo, since I can't bring myself to NOT post a Trixie condo, I will BBL after I eat my breffis to do so. I have a new little kitten step to report !!

Much love and many hugs to you, my family....

Amy, Mark, Trixie, Noah, Petey, Zen, and Frankie

 

Congratulations and Well Done, Trixie and Amy and Mark!!!​

Great pictures of the Trixster! She is such a cuddler. :lol:
Awesome video, CD! Thank you.
Liz

 

Oh my gosh Amy, I am so happy and excited for you and Mark that Trixie's OTJ party is here finally! What a beautiful video, CD. Trixie is one special and lucky kitty to have you as her Mamabean and Mark the DaddyBean.
Congratulations Trixie, Amy and Mark!! Now I want to go back to watch the video and take it all in a second time.

I am so happy for you, Amy. I'm relatively new here but you have been there for me and I just couldn't think of LL without you so I'm glad Trixie took an unusual way of going OTJ if it means we have the best of both worlds, you and OTJ Trixie.

Love the video. :RAHCAT :thumbup :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: flip_cat flip_cat

 

OMGoodness Trixie is OTJ?!?! :RAHCAT I saw the post on FB and just had to drop in and say CONGRATULATIONS!!! I read this and literally had tears in my eyes for you, you and Trix must be so happy!

Trix, enjoy your pokie-free days!

Tracy & Leo

 

Actually , Tracy...Trix followed a very non-traditional route to OTJ. She developed a nasty case of pancreatitis and since she wasn't eating, I wasn't shooting juice. Something about the pancreatitis woke up her pancreas, and she suddenly didn't need juice anymore :shock: ! So, we didn't go through a traditional OTJ trial. It has been over 2 months now since she's had a shot!! Trix, like her MamaBean, likes to do things her own way....

 

Oh, happy tears!!! The day we've been waiting for is here! Though we all have been celebrating Trixie's kitten steps over the last couple of months, today's celebration 'seals the deal!!' Many many cheers to Trixie, you, Mark and the rest of the kitty clan, Amy!! There will be lots of parades and fireworks and jumps for joy in honor of Trixie!! YIPPEEE!!!

:RAHCAT dancing_cat flip_cat :RAHCAT dancing_cat flip_cat

 

CONGRATULATIONS TRIXIE, AMY & MARK!!!​

What a wonderful thing for Trixie to go OTJ after all these years. You both such wonderful beans and your love and patience is what brought us to now. The crew is very lucky to have you and you them.

I'm so glad you aren't disappearing. We've been together since the beginning and I would miss you. It is a great day in LL. Hey, it even brought Tracy & Leo back to the board for a day. That is always a good thing.

 

:RAHCAT :RAHCAT :RAHCAT :RAHCAT

WOW!!!

This is so exciting Amy. Congrats girl. I hear that there will be fireworks tomorrow ....JUST FOR YOU. :lol:

 

WOW WOW WOW CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU ALL WAY TO GO MISS TRIXIE

Congratulations Trixie, Amy and Mark!!! Oh Happy tears... I'm so happy for you, Amy! WhoHoo!!!!! Juno was on the juice only for 4 months, but I still test him everyday and I like to see on a regular basis how the other kitties are doing in LL. I can imagine how you feel after having Trixie for so long time on the juice. Well done, Mommy!

Now let's celebrate!!!!!!!!

:RAHCAT :RAHCAT :RAHCAT :RAHCAT :RAHCAT

 

oh Amy, i'm so thrilled for you. You and i joined at the same time and I feel a special something for Trixie. I'm so glad she's come through the pancreatitis and it's gotten rid of the pokies for her!



heehee CD - awesome video! 6 minutes! :shock: :lol: but i watched every moment of it. Loved all the pics of miss trixie snuggling with her brothers. and plotting her beans' demise while on the kitchen counter! :lol: Thanks for sharing that with us - it's an extra special day when a kitty on insulin that long goes OTJ!

Amy, do you remember Morgan's Farewell Letter to D'Artagnan's Diabetes? It sure sums up the mixed blessings/curse of FD.

I'm glad you're not going to disappear - we need you. :YMHUG:

All of Lantus Land is dancing today!! There is going to be one HUGE kitty party tonight. I am so happy for you Amy and Mark - conventional or not, Trixie still got the job done. Thanks to a great pair of beans too!



Loved the video - especially Trixie as a Bruce fan! :lol:

 

Thank you, everyone, for all the visits, well-wishes....and the fuds, oh the fuds!!! The kitties have already packed up and headed off to the party. I told them to behave, have fun, and bring us a small sampler plate of all that yummy fuds! I suspect we won't see them till the wee hours of the morning...

 

CONGRATULATIONS TRIXIE, AMY, MARK and the whole rest of the crew!

YOU DID IT!!!!

I haven't been around here much but for this, I'll come back! Appears to me that Trixie made this decision all by herself. Yes in a very odd way! I'm sorry she's having other problems but this one less is HUGE!!!!

I am so happy for you guys. No one has been a more diligent Mom than you and it goes to show that
'faith will be rewarded'

Congratulations again and of course..
ENJOY LIFE AT THE FALLS!!!!

I agree about continuing to monitor Trixie's BGs on a regular basis.
But at least you're not restricted to a specific test/shot time, though the routine is a hard habit to break.
