The verdict

Katina got xrays on her back on Saturday. Luckily, she has no fractures. It is most likely two pinched nerves from her back being out of place. They are going to be doing some decompression every Saturday. If she continues to do well on that, it means no disc problems. If no improvement, then most likely disc damage. She is able to get up and move around. Sitting really aggravates it. She is going to have to get used to the pain, since she will probably have this problem for the rest of her life. She is going back to work tomorrow. Wish her luck. CRTs start on Wednesday, which means a lot of sitting.

Video of Sam trying to get the bird

This video was taken Saturday night as Sam wanted to get this bird really bad. Poor cat!

Video is a little dark. I was taking it laying on the couch not being able to move.

Pictures and Video of Sam

The following are some pictures of Sam when Katina was sweeping and mopping the kitchen. She put the chairs out in the living room and Sam was playing on them.

this one looks like he is in jail

Here is a video of Sam playing on the chairs.

On Saturday night, a little bird flew down and perched on our window well. Chris woke Sam to let him see. That bird tormented Sam all night. Sam would tap on the window and hit the window trying to get the bird. Finally after about an hour, Sam gave up. That bird was still sleeping there when we went to bed around 1 am. Poor Sam! Of all the times to be an indoor, declawed cat!

Some news about Katina's back. She went to the chiropractor yesterday. He believes that she might have a ruptured disc. He recommended heat and ice to take down the swelling and another adjustment on Thursday. He is also going to do some decompression on Saturday morning. She can't go to work until next week and can do very little besides rest and go to the bathroom. Thank heavens for her laptop. She has been watching a lot of movies the last few days.

Update

Katina went to the acupuncturist yesterday. Unfortunately, it did nothing for her. Thankfully, they did not charge her. Today she is going to the chiropractor. Hopefully, he can help her. It will be painful, but worth. She is still on bed rest. This drives her crazy as she gets so bored and wants to be up moving around. Chris has been great. He checks on her every few hours and has done a great job of keeping the house together. I love you honey!

Finally posting

It has been forever since we posted anything. We have been super busy. Here are a few things going:
Katina is posting this from her bed as she cannot move. On Saturday, she hurt her back. She sat down on the spare bed to get something and heard a pop and felt something move in her back. An hour later, she was applying heat and it was going into spasms. Saturday night was the worst pain. She almost went to the hospital. Her and Chris only got about 3 hours of sleep that night. On Sunday morning, a chiropractor came over before church and said it is her pelvic bone out of place. She spent all day yesterday in bed flat on her back. She can't even get up to go the bathroom on her own. She is waiting to see if she can get into the acupuncurist sometime today.
Chris has been working really hard the last two Saturdays. He has been helping build a storage shed for the HOA. It took them 8 hours last Saturday, 3 hours on Tuesday, and another 7 hours this Saturday. They still have the roof to put on. He is quite sunburned as it is really hot in Utah right now.
Katina started up school again two weeks ago. The kids have been really naughty as the weather has been hot. They also start their CRTs next week, which makes them crazy. It is going to be a long time till July 2nd, when school is out for the year. She also decided to come back next year. Last year she put that she would not be returning and could not find another job. This year she decided to put that she was coming back in hopes that she will find another job.
Sam has been so funny. Right now he is kneading Katina'a arm while laying right next to her on the bed. He likes to be really close whenever one of us is sick. I have some really funny pictures and videos of him chasing the birds, but will post them later this week when I can actually walk to get the camera.
