Profile:
I have recently retired from Texas prison systems, where I worked in the medical dept. for 14 years, and have been in nursing for 20 years. I have 2 sons of which one of them is an avid Dale Jr. fan like his mother, and the other doesn’t like a particular driver, just likes racing. I meet my late husband at a race track, while he was driving outlaw cars. I have been trying to go to a race for years, but was busy raising 2 boys, and by husband was too busy with his jobs, to take time to go to a race. I like anything that goes fast. My dream is to go around a race track at 200 miles a hour, to be that would be cool. I have gone for a Hot Air Balloon ride, and have flown in jets, and have tried to drag race, I did not win. I am from Canada but now live in Texas.
Other interests:
*reading needlepoint sewing, and watching races on T.V. and having time with my 3 grandsons, who I am making into avid race fans, and who also like Jr.

ghizmo he is doing fine. It was touch and go there for awhile. I live in Lake Worth Texas, suburb of Fort Worth, and I had to go into Fort Worth to a 24 hr. hospital. They thought it was renal failure, and than after x-ray it showed huge impaction, and possible mega colon. They gave him enemas and after some of the impaction was removed he started to urinate. Bottom line he stayed there for 2 days and he is worth more now after the vet bills, than before. But was worth it. He is now on high fiber diet. Final DX. was impact, no renal problems. He is home and mama here is happy. Thanks for asking.

Hey Can79feb!
I am the nurse who thought they should go back to old school racing. Just wanted to see how your cat is doing.
