Damn, sorry to hear this Dave. Hopefully, it's only a temporary set-back.
Best wishes to her...and your family.

Re: Keep Witfull in your thoughts

its day by day, i even bought new meditaion beads in chinatown, and stopped at the temple today. to add to my table of tribulation, my labrador retriever, age 12 was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer today. he is in the hospital too.

i hate to bother you all with this, but RS is a major part of me, and i feel you are all friends. im trying to keep up to date, although i may not post, im here, and RS is a normalicy for me. just bear with me in this time.

Re: Keep Witfull in your thoughts

Are you considering Chemo for your dog?
We do an average of 1-2 a week here and although it doesn't cure them, it can give them another 6 mos. Talk to your vet and see what they say.

Re: Keep Witfull in your thoughts

no new updates, all is ok. she is still in ICU, but they say shes making progress. she sleeps alot in the afternoon, but they all say shes wide awake at 5am (like she usually is) talked to a rehab center yesterday that specializes in neuro care. good thing is they are 5 minutes from my home, and i never knew they were there. they are also right next to a hospital (just in case).

im trying to take care of myself, but nights are tough. even 2 Ambiens wont knock me out~

im going to try and post more to get me back to somewhat normal (if thats possible or as normal as i can be~)

Re: Keep Witfull in your thoughts

I'll pray for her recovery, Wit. It may be slow, but they're doing wonders with stroke victims today.

I'm sorry to hear about your dog too. That's tough. My dad once said the biggest disadvantage of a long life span was having to bury a lot of pets.
