I thought I knew how Sunday (1/19) would go….there
would be a relaxing breakfast:
 |
| my honey's perfect gas houser eggs |
and then I
would spend the afternoon with friends at the Piedmont Fiber Guild, listening
to a talk by my friend Susie. That was
the plan anyway…but worsening symptoms on Cookie’s part led to a frantic search
for a 24/7 animal hospital, and after several false starts we ended up in
Matthews with our very sick puppy:
 |
| they wrapped her poor tail so it wouldn't get stained with blood |
 |
| Mom - what's going on? |
The
doctor actually couldn’t believe how sick Cookie was based on her demeanor, but
blood work doesn’t lie and they admitted her and she is on steroids, and
anti-nausea medication and an IV because she was dehydrated. We were finally home after 4 PM and I just
couldn’t get anything going. I sat in
the living room, reading a library book and thinking about my very sick baby until bedtime.
