Life events

The cat that is diabetic is not doing well. He went to the vet for a glucose control and found that he continues to lose weight. He had some blood work drawn for the dreaded cancer diagnosis. The vet is considering dropping hos insulin and treating him with diet only due to the issues with his weight, and low values on glucose after one administration of 1 unit of insulin.  The new insulin vial is due to be refilled soon.
UPDATE: We spoke to the vet, and are considering stopping his insulin and managing with diet only. That would be a relief. 

May car is due for it's 51,000 mile check up in a month or so. We have 49 thousand miles now. So we have a little bit of time.
UPDATE: Can't worry about this yet, I still have some time prior to getting the tune up. 

My daughter went to her doc, new meds have been ordered.
UPDATE: We picked up her prescriptions, paid cash for them. Enough said.

The foot doc is being a regular, I need to get my blood work drawn tomorrow for Friday's appointment. I find out how much the insurance didn't cover for the needed x rays last week.
UPDATE: Got my lab work done, paid 25 dollars for copayment. Tomorrow will be another 20 dollars for the office visit. Still waiting on the costs for the xrays.

Our other cat, Pepper needs to get his immunizations in October.
UPDATE: Not concerned yet. 

My middle daughter and son are planning on going to the homecoming dance in October.
UPDATES: My daughter wants to go to homecoming. I requested that we look at dresses in her closet first.

We went to the dentist yesterday. I made it out with ZERO cavities, as did my son. My two girls have two cavities each that need to be filled. One girl needs sedation to get the work done. My daughter needs to get her wisdom teeth out. We have been referred to an oral surgeon for general anesthesia and extraction of all four at once. I can't keep her awake to have the work done, she will not be able to handle the anxiety.
UPDATE: I sent the paperwork off for the referral to the oral surgeon. No other progress noted. 

Times like this, I am worried about our income and being able to handle the ongoing stress that comes with having only my income.
