A great day, and a bad day
12 years ago
Yesterday was my birthday, it went really well. On the 4th my family had a party, and I got some great gifts. Nothing too expensive, but all of it was something fun and usable. Yesterday we had a rare feast of crab legs and lobster tail and I went shopping with a friend.
But now things may be turning for the worst. As I mentioned a bit ago, one of my dogs, Jo Jo, isn't doing so well. We have a vet visit today at 4pm. Our vet lives in a town outside of the city, so it's a bit of a drive, and this will likely be an all day ordeal. Jo got over his fever, but he's drinking more, needs to be let out more, and he's leaving pee spots wherever he lies down. We'd phoned the vet and she had mentioned that it might either be cancer or Cushing's Disease.
I'm pretty sure we're not going to be leaving the vet without Jo, but I don't know if we'll have him for long...
We spoil our dogs like kids, we love them to death. We've had Jo Jo for 10 years now... it's not going to be easy if we have to put him down soon...

Yeah. The visit actually went well... in a way. We were all thinking of funeral plans and what day we might have to put him down... instead we find out that he's very healthy for a dog his age, but something IS wrong. The short version is that we were given some pills and some orders to up his food, and those things have surprisingly worked almost instantly.
