I couldn't stand looking at my yard half mowed so after I fed my neighbors birds--filled 6 feeders and filled the water fountain I came home put on long underwear, a sweatshirt and a coat and started mowing. I finished! Looks so much better all done! I am tired but will take a shower and finish up the meatloaf so maybe I will regain some energy for work tonight!
He's okay. No pain or so it doesn't seem like it but he is just not himself. It's cancer and not going to get better. He has fought a long hard battle and bless his heart been very strong. I will not make this last much longer. His next vet appointment is in a week so I'll know more by then. He is my buddy, my memories of my DH and he is part of the family but he is not happy I am sure. There are times when he still chatters at the birds outside but it's rare now. Mostly he sleeps. My heart is broken over this little fellow....sigh......
cyn.....I won't comment on what you already know.....other than to tell you that he is lucky to have had you and your DH....and he will be fine. "All will be well; All things will be well again; I know."
Yesterday before work I had decided that after work Whitey and I would take our last ride together to the vet. I was a wreck at work--no sleep the night before and eating has been terrible. Obviously I am very emotional about it all. So I ask to be let go early at work which my boss understood and did--got home and called my vet. He was out yesterday. So I go and get several cans of Whitey's favorite foods and decided we'd make the best of another day. Couldn't sleep and my stomach is so upset but today we will probably go to the vets. Please keep us in your thoughts--I can use all the positive thoughts and prayers I can get.
Cyn, my prayers and thoughts of strength and health for you. It may not help much but remember you are doing the right thing for Whitey... and for yourself.

This. I'm so very sorry, cyn. Know you are doing the right thing. Our oldest dog, Cotey (the Pomeranian) just turned 12. He's healthy but I totally dread the same thing happening to him. The Chow Chow is only 8 and the two rescue kittens are now coming up on 10 years old. All are doing fine, it's just so hard to watch these things progress. They leave us way too soon. I love all 4 of them so very, very much.
Sorry, cynwldkat. I'll put you into today's prayers.
You hang in there. Have a good or two and get on with your days with the hope that your husband and Whitey are together again in a different form. Anything is possible.
Cyn.....holding you and Whitey in my prayers and in my thoughts. I do know how hard this is....I have been in your shoes. I have always known that it was the right thing......and part of my responsibility as a loving owner.....but that doesnt make it any easier.
Be strong and know that you are not alone......even though it must feel that way.
