Freya Meets Her Sisters

April 11, 2024

Little Freya continued to surprise us with how well she was doing. After the syringe feedings, I started giving her meal worms:

I figured it was also time she met her sisters. The first one she met was Abby:

The journey with Freya so far has been pretty amazing. Just wait to see what has been happening over the last three years!

Today’s Symptoms: I felt pretty good today. It was supposed to be our fourth attempt to fly to the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum in Hamilton. Mike and I have put in for vacation once a week over the last month, hoping to fly to the museum. The weather has not cooperated! Attempt number five next week!

We Named Her Freya!

March 25, 2024

After a few days with the baby robin (three years ago), it appeared she was getting stronger and healthier. I was really getting attached to the little goober, especially with the numerous feedings every day. Mike and I both liked the name Freya – the Goddess of Fertility, Love and Beauty. So here are some pics of Freya:

Every day she looks a little different and a smidge bigger. We were both really looking forward to the day she opens her eyes. Stay strong, little Freya!

Today’s symptoms: I felt quite good yesterday morning and the skies were calling. I took my little mother up for a flight since she hasn’t flown since November. We headed over Fort Erie, Niagara Falls and then Niagara-On-The-Lake before landing. I did a few things around the house when we got back, including the weekly cat cleaning. Over the last five days or so, I’ve been getting very tired and fatigued starting early in the afternoon. If I sat down for too long, I would fall asleep. It’s been hard to drag my butt around to do anything. I’m not sure if this is an MS thing, hormonal or something else. I’m hoping it doesn’t go on much longer because it’s really cramping my style!
