Good evening, friends!!
Hope you all had a nice, relaxing Sunday!!
We just chilled around the house, and watched some tv. Caught up on some phone calls w/ family & friends.
It was beautiful outside today, but the winds are picking up & we're in for a cool down. Which actually is good, because when we visit my parents in Arizona, the road trip there & back will be more tolerable. This desert sun is a killer =)
I'm a bit worried about my sister, her dog Hunter is not doing so well. He ruptured a disc, and they're worried about possible paralysis. I can't imagine seeing him in so much pain. She admitted him into the vet hospital so they could monitor him & keep him comfortable. She was having trouble keeping him from over exerting/hurting himself, and last night he had an episode where he escaped out the dog door & went up & down the steps, which led to a seizure. Her other pup, Hailey, is lost without her brother & keeps howling. They want to send him to a specialist in Madison to do a major surgery, but it costs up to $5,000, and they can't guarantee that it will help him, and even if it does, he'll have at least a year of recovery, physical therapy, rehabilitation, etc. And he's over 10 years old, so she has to decide if it's even worth it for him since a beagle's life span is @ 12-14 years. Plus, it's a risky surgery for his age. Wish I could be there to giver her moral support. Can you guys please pray for the both of them?? Thank you.
Time to turn in! I'm exhausted. Sweet dreams, everyone.
I wish you all a lovely week!! Take care & talk soon.
