Mr. Cranky made it home

Picked him up around 7 pm. Got about 4 hrs sleep until I had to get up for the delivery of his new hospital-style bed--after I worked a 12 hr shift on about 4 hrs. sleep (thank God for Herbalife NRG energy supplement). Planned to get about 4 more hrs sleep before work 'cause Cranky was supposed to be released around 4. Didn't make it back to bed 'til 9 for about another hour's worth. Cranky's doctor wants him on the Atkins diet, but we're going to try a modified Atkins combined with Herbalife. Doctor gave him an antibiotic for the next 10 days, that cost about $80. What ever happened to inexpensive generic antibiotics? The dogs are happy now--they hardly leave his side. We have to get rid of all the birds. Their dander irritates Cranky's lungs and increases the chance of infection. Anybody want to adopt a parakeet, cockatiel, Quaker, or parrotlet? Come pick them up or pay for the shipping and they're all yours.
