My soulmate

So up at 5...the emptiness of my life is crashing in on me and can feel the unrelenting weight of it.

Also sending hugs.
I am thinking of you @Kiwi2016. How are you doing today.
How is your pup?
Hope you are getting out for walks?

@may71 @1Lefty @seabird my life ...

So yesterday had to take Brinny to vet. She had cough/nasal congestion thing... so they sedated, did full body xrays, examined throat...her tonsils are inflamed as is her nose, had bit of something in throat...but lungs clear and no foreign bodies...so now on antibiotics for 7 days and steroid for 9 days.

I now cry in drs offices as that was where i was when he died...

@Kiwi2016 (h) to you.

And get-well thoughts to Brinny on her recovery.

 

[Kiwi2016]

Thank you.

 

[may71]

More hugs, and I hope Brinny will get well soon.

 

[Kiwi2016]

Thank you. The antibiotic and steroid seem to have worked so Brinny is better.

I am probably playing with her more than i should as the days seem so long and so quiet. Know could do miny training sessions but just dont have motivation alas. So may have to add that as to my one thing a day.

 

[Windhover]

Yay for Binny's health being better. 🩷

Motivation always seems to be a tricky thing. I like the idea of (adding?) one thing a day @Kiwi2016

I'm glad you're here.

I just saw this thread @Kiwi2016 . So sorry for your loss. Hugs

 

[may71]

Thank you

You're welcome!

That's good

I don't think there's such a thing as playing with a puppy too much, at least as far as the puppy is concerned. I'm glad you have her.

Sending hugs

Went to yoga yesterday for the first time since we got Brinny...cried silently for the hour as was first time alone and still in my thoughts/being if that makes any sense...

 

[Windhover]

Yes it makes total sense.

I'm sorry for the tears but I support your courage and the care you're giving your self @Kiwi2016

Thank you... long time friend came today... his wife died about 6 years ago from MS.. it was so good to see him and talk about shared memories... but so hard at same time... as he was my husband's best friend when we lived in the mountains..

What’s right right now is usually what’s hard and what hurts. Someone who knows what you’re going through and misses him too is the best kind of person to spend time with.

 

[Kiwi2016]

Yes you are so right about that. I feel so fortunate that on Monday our friend of 20 years who shared my husbands love of gardening came for the day to help with pruning /putting the garden to bed for the season. It was a hard good and tears flowed with the pruning of the clematis which were his passion. So glad had such good friend to help with that as had been dreading from emotional and just overwhelming amount of work.

 

[Kiwi2016]

Feeling so very alone and so very tired. Wondering why I am bothering with any of it. Call friends just to hear a voice..but have nothing to say...just dont want to be alone...

Well the latest... It has been a time with Brinny. She threw up and was very lethargic, panting . So took her to vet. They saw abdominal fluid, dehydration etc. So they kept her overnight. It was/is apparently anaphylactic shock but from what we dont know. So she is home now and on meds.

So a relief if she continues to do ok as next option would be exploratory surgery.

Racking my brain on what could be flora, fauna, reptile, bug, chemical etc. ????

Hard to know. Puppies can get themselves into trouble easily, particularly if they have a tendency to eat almost anything.

I guess the treatment is the main thing, but it would be nice to know what was the cause so you could prevent a repeat of the same.

I know a puppy is really a 2 year old. Yes agree wish i knew what it was. But hoping she recovers and doesnt happen again.
