Didn't faint

[cjsmith]

I got through the demo mostly okay. Only afterward did it hit me. I spent a good ten minutes sitting on the floor feeling cold and clammy and numb, but I got down there in a controlled manner.

Not too bad.

The vet tech and the office manager were both very helpful. The office manager in particular deserves a very nice thank-you note, as this is the second time in less than a week that she's seen me all apprehensive about what I'm getting into and has taken the extra time to talk to me, give me helpful hints, reassure me, and answer questions. She's superb.

Duchess was fine throughout. I'm not at all sure she knew she was getting a shot. (Either that or, after we picked up folds of skin and poked fingers at them about 3846 times, she was thinking well FINALLY.) The demo was with saline, since I hadn't filled (or indeed even picked up) my prescriptions yet, so she'll get her first real dose this evening.

Errands now: post office, pharmacy, groceries.

Thanks. I don't aim to be Posty McPostalot but I suspect I'll write up the first injection I give.
