What a week!

[rabernet]

Well, I just got back from a week with my family. I know it doesn't seem like I was gone since I logged on in the evenings from my mom's computer.

Well, the first evening there at 3 in the morning, we get a call that my 96 YO grandmother is being transported to the emergency room. After 12 hours there, she was admitted with pnuemonia. So, the week was spent visiting the hospital 2 x a day - very emotionally draining. We are cautiously optomistic for her right now. Got to see her for the last time last evening and hit the road this morning.

I'm plum worn out! LOL

And then find that Scarlett had her 3rd litter of babies, probably this morning, in the enclosure with Caesar, so I'm hoping that she didn't get pregnant again before I was able to get her set up in her maternity tank. I didn't think she was pregnant before I left, so I didn't set her up before then, figured I'd be moving her into it tomorrow and she'd have her babies this coming week! :eek:

Mom and 14 babies are doing well!

Robin, I'm sorry to hear that about your Grandma! I hope she does well... As for Scarlet, I'm guessing she is a rodent? Good luck to you, and I hope this next week is much better for you!!!

Thank you, and yes - Scarlett is one of my six female breeder rats!

Best wishes, prayers and hugs for your granny. Congrats on Ms. S. having yet another stellar litter! Glad to hear your home safe and sound.

I'm sorry for your scare with your grandmother's health, but I'm glad that she is improving. I'm sure your presence was an enormous comfort.

It sounds like your rat breeding is going exceedingly well. I have such a hard time not getting attached to them, but I've only kept 1 for myself.

Glad to have ya back!

I have to say you are so lucky that you're grandma has lived as long as she has! I wish I had more years with my grandma.

I hope she gets better.
