why do they have to grow old?

Linnet's losing weight again. The last time this happened, the cure was harder on him than the disease (we've been round and round with H.pylori ever since he was eight years old), and the vet said it probably wasn't a good idea to put a cat his age (he's fifteen) through that again.

When the medicine you take to enable you to digest your food instead of in one end and out the other makes you throw up, it's kind of counterproductive.

Sigh. I love him. I hate it when this happens. His littermate Morgan is still hale and hearty (and three pounds heavier). I swear I should have named them Miles and Mark...
