Art Update [IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ]
10 years ago
If I owe you art and I'm slow about it, I'm very sorry.
On Thursday mine and Keese's eleven-year-old puppy started throwing up and she wouldn't eat. Now it's almost a week later and she still won't eat.
I'd go into it in more depth, but it's easier to just copy my FB update and be done with it. I'm so stressed out right now and I don't know what to do. I am working on art, it's just a slow process.
"So, I feel like Tofu has gotten worse since we took her to the vet yesterday.
She keeps throwing up what looks like a dark green, gritty sludge...she's shaking really bad and, when Willow and I got back from taking her for a ride, she was really wobbly on her feet, almost fell over a bunch, and couldn't walk up the stairs--I had to pick her up and carry her up the stairs.
She's still refusing to eat anything (this includes peanut butter--which is her absolute favorite thing in the world--brisket, McDonald's, she will not even take kibble out of my hand). I've also tried to get her to drink some chicken broth but to no avail...and now she's getting to where she'll hardly drink anything. She's only peed once today and will not even get up out of her house to do anything else.
I'm so scared of losing my baby. I keep telling her that if she needs to go that it is fine and I will be okay but...really, I'm not going to be okay. Losing Tofu will literally tear my heart to pieces. She's more than a dog, she's my absolute best friend in the world, she's my furbaby...and it kills me to see her laying there suffering and not having the energy or the gumption to get up and do anything. She won't even bark.
I don't know what to do anymore."

It was too soon for her to go and I am so angry...I just want to scream.
I have a few loved pets to illness myself so I understand how angry and lost it can make someone feel. If you wanna talk, vent, or anything I'll be around alright?
I wish you all the luck you'll need in dealing with this.
Thank you so much for that. I do feel very lost without my baby...and part of me is so mad. It wasn't the right time for her to go...but I know that I don't feel like it would have ever been the right time. But then I am happy that she's passed on because she is no longer suffering.
She had a uterine infection that I guess we just didn't catch in time...so half of me wonders if there was something we could have done to avoid this whole entire thing.
It's just rough.
Yea, it's never the 'right' time. And trust me on this, do not beat yourself up over the 'could I have done something' bit. It can ruin a person.
It will be rough, you'll need proper time to morn and I hope you give yourself that.
Like I said, I'm here if you need it. For anything too, not just this fyi.
