Nolan...

On friday we found out Nolan was diabetic...
he was started on insulin...he did good on Friday...
and on Saturday he was starting to be more like himself...
Saturday night I left for an hour...came back...
and he was not doing good...he wouldn't eat..
he just wanted to lay around...he spent all day Sunday
sitting in my lap...or sleeping...would not eat...
had to spoon water and broth in him..
we took him back to the Vet monday morning...
we saw a different Vet...and found out he was being
given more than twice the amount of insulin that he should have...
and put on the wrong food...
she changed his insulin...changed his food... 
we pureed the food to get him to eat it...
and yesterday afternoon....he tried to get in the trash...
we knew he was hungry...we were so excited...
he ate his food at dinner without it being pureed...
he still has a ways to go to get back to being Nolan...
but hopefully he is on his way to being better...
he even picked up his ball lastnight...
didn't want to play....but he picked it up...

Get well soon Nolan. You're a pretty doggie and your name is special 'cause I have a long time friend who has a husband named Nolan.
