Clive is not doing well. I'll save all the details because I'm sort of tired of talking about them. I'm exhausted physically (he's up all night) and mentally. I've decided against chemo for Clive, so we'll just make sure he is comfortable as he can be. Not the way I expected to spend my birthday today.
I wanted, and started, to write each person personally to thank them for their kind words, but it is too much at this time, so please know I've read all your notes to us. Extra hugs to your furbabies tonight.
Hugs & licks, Kathy & Clive

I just read about Clive on Tesla's blog. I am sorry, and I hope Clive does very well. Many times cats and dogs do much better than you would expect, given the circumstances. My big sister Pixie was diagnosed with Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy over 6 years ago and she has outlasted everyone's expectations. It just teaches you to treasure every day.
Clive, tell your Momma not to worry about replying to our messages. We know this is a very tiring time for you both. Take this time to be with each other, to cuddle and to love each other.
Our thoughts are with you.
Love from Casper, Buddy, Nikki and Momma
kathy,
Have as happy of a birthday as you can. Writing everyone would take to much time and energy. take care of yourself and Clive that is what is needed at this point.

Clive, tell your mom to spend her time with you and not worry about responding to us. You two need to spend time together and enjoy each other's company. The only thing you need to know about the rest us is that we are here and we care.

Hi there Kathy! So sad to hear that Clive has not improved...You must be soooo exhausted taking care of him & making sure he's alright. We know you are very thankful for all of our wishes & comments so there's no need for you to thank each & everyone of us. Save your energy for poor Clive. I really hope he will get better soon. We're always here for you guys.
Love licks,

Dear Kathy and Clive,
How devastating. I've loved seeing Clive's pictures; he's always looked so healthy; and he's too young to have such a problem!! Sometimes life just isn't fair. We're sending you love and best good health wishes.
