Turning Potential Into Reality

Scroll down to see more content

Yes I have been MIA. Our 17-year old Cookie took a turn for the worse with symptoms that were critical. After discovering the shocking conditions Veterinarians are being forced to work under, I said no way will Cookie or any of my cats be exposed to this horror being inflicted on so many! Pet parents are being forced to be separated from their babies when they are seen by a Vet. They are told to sit in their vehicle while their baby is brought into the Vet office by a tech.

Crowds can flock to Walmart but pet parents are barred from being with their babies in a very scary circumstance. Excuse me? What is wrong here? IMO

Backed up hard against a brick wall, my husband and I despite our fears we could not do the “impossible”, went to work. We did so blind. We researched. I listened to my Inner Guidance. A treatment plan was created, one that we had no idea would work, yet hoped it would. Our goal was to stop or decrease Cookie’s symptoms and to immediately address her pain issue.

When circumstances seem to be the darkest with seemingly no way out, do not give up. Dig deep. Use your untapped energy within you and fly on what you do know, not knowing if what you are doing will lead you to light but do it anyways.

For days we worked around the clock, not stopping even though both of us were dropping in exhaustion. When we saw her symptoms remain, last Thursday I made the dreaded calls to the parties who would help us bring Cookie’s suffering to an end.

That day both hubby and I cried hard. Even then, we did not quit as I kept up with her treatment regimen. Night approached and I fell into bed with the thought tomorrow will be my last with my Cookie. Heartbreak! Despite my exhaustion I had trouble sleeping until finally I passed out around midnight. The next thing I know Hubby is waking me up at 3am bubbling with excitement almost shouting,

Cookie caught a mousie! And her voice sounds almost normal.

Oh yes that is a big deal. Cookie is the Queen Mouser and every day for years she has hunted those [toy] mice. While the new onset of symptoms erupted, she did not catch any mice. To know she caught a mouse brought with it such relief that I immediately fell into a dead sleep.

 

I called off all arrangements to end Cookie’s life the following morning. As of this writing, Cookie is looking much improved while Hubby and I still assess and tweak her treatment plan accordingly. One of the items on that treatment plan is I am feeding her 3 times a day. As long as she is looking well and we are able to keep her comfortable and happy, life goes on as usual in this home.

 

Did we quit? No. Did we expose Cookie to the nightmare Vet Hospitals have become? No. We took power ourselves and applied what we do know, [over 20 years of knowledge with experience], and went full out to do everything we could for Cookie in her time of need. What began as a nightmare blossomed into a Blessing, one that I still am saying, “Pinch me.” If we had given up, Cookie would not be here with us today. We are still analyzing and figuring the situation out up until today so we can further help our baby.

One of the morals of this story:  NEVER GIVE UP! NO MATTER WHAT!

    1. I pray for your fur-kids’ sake that they do not have to be brought into a Vet’s office, Dan. I was completely shocked knowing what is now going on. You have no idea how grateful I am that Hubby and I have worked so hard over many years to address our “kids” needs. Just today Hubby found a Homeopathic Remedy that hopefully will address Cookie’s tongue paralysis and other issues. This mission is ongoing.

    1. Krish, we are treating Cookie with non-traditional medicine such as Homeopathy. We are combining herbs, catnip, and Rescue Remedy along with Homeopathy and acupressure. She just received a new remedy today and it is kicking her butt. I’m staying close. Thank you for your comment. It meant a lot to me! Bless you! xo

      1. Homeopathy is at times quite effective with pets..my late bro, a vet by profession used to try a lot of homeopathy treatment on pets..

      2. Homeopathy is a very very difficult and complicated science. I have every respect for any Vet or any doctor at that to at least try to treat with these remedies. Thank you on the God bless you. I’m so tired, Krish, and Cookie we still don’t know if she will truly turn around. All I can say is, all of us are giving this our very best shot. Much love to you! xo

    1. If there is anything about me, Mark, yes I do follow my heart. I’ve been with Cookie all day today after giving her a new Homeopathic remedy. Not sure of anything right now, only that we did stop the critical symptoms. Where things go from here, is anyone’s guess. She’s been through so much and the horrible drooling has left her fur so dirty. If it wouldn’t stress her out so much I would give her a bath but that is not an option. One day a time. That’s it. Thank you, dear friend, for your concern and your well wishes. Bless you! xo

  4. Dear Amy, I had been thinking of your Cookie lately. Now I know why. Just this morning my neighbors cat appeared in front of our home and I had not seen him in some time. He looks like Cookie. Even though Cookie and I haven’t met there has been some sort of connection to her. My prayers are with her and you too and I am sure the Kitty Angels are watching over her. She couldn’t have a better team looking over her! 🙏🏻😇💫 Sending you so much love! 💖💗💞

    1. Denise, I sit here stunned by your words. Whether you know it or not, you are connecting into the higher frequency energy that is now coming in, which some have coined as 5D. How you actually thought about Cookie is mind blowing for as far as I know, I haven’t talked about her in quite some time. I am SO touched and SO honored that you are sending LOVE. Thank you from the bottom of both of our hearts!! This journey has been so hard, so terrifying especially knowing we have the balance of life and death in our hands. The more research Hubby does, the more we realize Cookie was (possibly) misdiagnosed 1.5 years ago and instead of having an aggressive cancer she has a condition called vascular fibrosis (we think) that causes fatty tumors and has complications with the liver. We have yet to tie in why her tongue is improperly working but we have HOPE that with the Homeopathy that she is being given today, her tongue will begin to work correctly. God bless you! And I mean that!! Much love to you! BIG (((HUGS)))!!! xoxoxo

      2. Oh, Denise! I just saw your comment. We lost Cookie yesterday in a very very special way. I am so sorry about your loss. Believe me, I know how difficult this is and how badly our hearts hurt after loosing someone so dear to us. Cookie went fast too. She was ill for a while, yes, but took a turn for the worse and it just went from there. Two weeks and gone. Those two weeks had me turn into Super Woman doing everything I knew to turn her around. Ditto for hubby. May both of us find Comfort at this time. God bless you and your family! (((HUGS))) xoxo

  5. Sometimes we know our fur babies better than the vets. I had a vet for awhile years ago that I found out was crooked, first I found out on my own by taking my dog in their and they scammed me right as I was standing there and I knew something was up. The next year they went out of business, others discovered the same thing. They were pretending to give shots, but did not actually do it and charged way to much for the service. People do horrible things just for money, money will not buy you happiness.
    I have since found a vet who is really good. But I don’t go there unless an emergency. I know my dogs pretty well.

    1. Sandra, the nightmare stories I could tell you about Vets we’ve suffered ….. shocks the soul to realize that these people who are supposed to help our babies are in reality not doing so, and in fact, causing harm. If I spoke about those people, my anger would return so I will not. My babies mean everything to me …. they are family! As for the conditions Vets are being forced to operate under those are inhumane and make NO sense whatsoever. The amount of terrorism being caused by officials is sickening. The tech that I spoke to confidently told me they were all fed up by the restrictions and they truly do not like what they are being forced to do. At my next hair appt where they do not force me to wear a mask due to my medical condition, I will be asking around for recommendations for Vets who have maintained their humanity regardless of what our dictator is mandating.
      We are like you. We do not go to a Vet unless it is absolutely necessary. We have taught ourselves how to care for our babies. Yes we do know our babies much better then any Vet, hands down. May you have a truly blessed day today, Sandra. Much love to you!! xo

      1. Yes, the people need to take their lives and businesses into their own hands and stand up for their rights. Those in office are giving out orders that they have no right to do, and then they act like they are above everyone else. Don’t even get me started on that either. 🙂.

      2. Sandra, you and I mirror one another. I could talk all day about this! I won’t get you started. Just know that there is one woman (me) who fights for what is right and who will not be intimidated by those in office who ought to be in jail. Nuff. My passions run deep. I am finding humanity in this mess and it is those people I give my time, energy and business to. I call it the Underground Light as I follow the breadcrumbs from one group to another and then go from there. I will NOT mix with the blind, deaf and stupid. (smile) xo

      5. …. The degree of cowardice and stupidity most are displaying is truly shocking, Sandra. That is why it is so important for those of us who KNOW and SEE to fight and to keep on speaking up. I spoke to a Sheriff and NO WAY can we can be arrested for anything. What is being done is NOT law and is tyranny. I will NOT deal with people who blindly follow criminals. Just had to say that! I like you get riled ….. and I won’t stop caring for not only my life and my family’s life but for this country’s as well. I MUST have faith that God will somehow shine light so brightly that even those who are blind will see. I’m always praying …..

    1. God bless you, John! We have worked so hard over the years to find “gentle holistic means” to treat our cats when they are in need. This comes with it a lot of responsibility, however, for in the case with Cookie, life and death are in the balance here. Yes we do know what we are doing but to put together a treatment plan you just never know for sure if it will work. So far so good! And today we try something new to address her tongue issue. May you have a truly blessed day!! xo

    1. Again I am stunned and covered in goosebumps, MW. Another friend here told me she too has been thinking of Cookie. Whoa! Thank you thank you thank you for your prayers and love. This journey has been so scary and so tough, yet to see Cookie actually pulling through brings such awe that yes, oh yes, the “potential” in all of us to create reality in the fashion that is truly divine, humbles me! I just came from your site (I’ve missed you!) and left a comment. I’ve got energy right now so I’m blogging while I can. Abundant love and BIG (((HUGS))) to you!! God bless you for assisting my family while on this journey. oxoxoxoxox

I will most definitely give Cookie while embraced in my arms today an extra special cuddles telling her it is from a very special soul who knows her.

      2. Oh wow! Tears blur …. I know for I “feel” it. Another round of goosebumps for you to understand. Incredible! Hubby and I most definitely have entered an energetic field that consists of Guidance and Love. This is even more then I would have dreamed to be possible. One of my personal sayings is …. “Most times one, two, or perhaps three actions in FAITH take place and then God shows up.” Both of us here are being “tested” and “trusted”. MW, to describe this environment leaves me unable to. It just IS. Glorious! xo

    1. God bless you! I KNOW how emotional and scary and hard this journey is. The ONLY reason we go to the Vet is for emergencies. I’ve also have had in the past to select a cat or two cats to go in for a wellness exam so that I can continue getting the supples I need like LR fluids. Now that I think about that, I’m going to see if I can possibly buy what I need online using my RN license. Now that would be awesome! NO MORE Vet visits! Vet visits are SO stressful without even adding the conditions in today’s nightmare of a world. Bless you SO much for the prayers! I cherish them! Much love to you and BIG (((HUGS)))!! I am so proud of you for going the extra miles in order to treat your babies nature intended them to be treated. You don’t hear often cats like Miss Kitty living until 19 years. That in of itself speaks highly of your care. xoxoxo

    1. Donna, it’s day by day. Yes we got the terrible drooling to stop but discovered her tongue is not working properly. That is what caused the drooling in the first place. Again we’ve gone to work giving her another Homeopathic Remedy today addressing her tongue issue and others as well. I’m not sure if these are her last days or if she will really turn around. I’ve been with Cookie all day long. I wouldn’t do things any differently. I know what it is like not to be loved by parents and that will not ever happen to my kids. I have so much to do in my gardens but between my mega fatigue and Cookie, they are going to wait until things get a bit smoother. Hope you and yours are doing well in UK. Count your blessings you are not in the states. For tyrants to force Vets to do what they are is criminal and for Vets to follow what these tyrants are telling them to do is even more so. I’m so disgusted with humankind in general. I’ve been following the “Underground Light” via word of mouth giving my attention, energy and money to those people who have not lost their souls to the devils called government and money. I am confident I will be led to another Vet who has not lost his or her humanity and is refusing to follow asinine orders that make zero sense. Vet visits are SO stressful for our animals and to separate them from their parents is SO WRONG! Stay strong and keep shining brightly!! Much love to you!! xo

    1. We are taking it day by day, Eliza. My goal is to consult with a Vet I trust (our in-home euthanasia Vet) to run by her the symptoms Cookie is displaying. If there is any chance of imminent stroke or further deterioration, you know darn well what I will do. Tough very tough place to be in. Cookie is the second Mama in this house and is very very emotionally attached to me. I just require answers, REAL ones, to decide what next to do. I no longer trust our Vet due to how she is treating animals and pet parents right now all because the tyrant in Albany is demanding sole right to decisions he has no right to be making. I’m hoping to talk to our in-home Vet tomorrow. And feeding Cookie …. she is such a good girl. It breaks my heart to see her like this. Accepting what is perhaps is toughest for me at times like this. I know we could write a book yet we don’t have the “official” credentials. Homeopathy for example is a huge and very complex science and even with over 20 years of experience and knowledge, we still in our own right are not able to teach. We still are learning.

  13. Oh Amy, I’m so glad your beloved Cookie is once again catching mice and you and your hubby were able to help her. Just goes to show the strength of resilience and the spirit of not giving up. How sad that vets are treating their practices and animals in this way. I pray that Cookie continues to enjoy good health, I’m sure you’ll do your absolute best to make sure she does. Isn’t it amazing how knowledge, research and human love can transcend. So proud of you, but not surprised. You continually inspire me with your love, strength and determination. Big hugs and much love to you and your fur babies dear friend. xxxx 💕

    1. Despite going above and beyond, we lost our Cookie on the 8th of September. No regrets. And what is more important, we have real peace knowing it truly was her time. There are no “but what ifs” or “we should haves …”. We always take it upon ourselves to go the mile and then some for we are parents in every sense of the word. xoxo
