I thought I would do a quick rundown for those following the medical disaster my two doggies and I have experienced this year.
Heidi is finally well. She is on good food and medication and is returning to her sweet and happy self.
Meanwhile, Lili went to the Vets. I brought a urine sample, and they checked that and ran a blood panel. It was then that my sweet girl flipped out.
She fought everyone, including me. They’d never seen Lili have a nervous breakdown, and they were impressed. And not in a good way.
They asked about her behavior at home, and I told them it had worsened in the last year. There are days I am afraid she will accidentally hurt me.
So Lili got her prescription for antibiotics as well as a drug akin to Prozac and a tranquilizer if she was having too much of a breakdown.
I’ve been watching Grey’s Anatomy, and two main characters refer to friendship as “she’s my person.”
I think Lili’s person was Jack. Since he died, she gets out of control like this. I so wish I could sit her down and explain things to her. This truly makes me sad.
I know Lili loves me, but I know she misses her daddy.
I will go in a couple of weeks for my cardiac testing. Nothing gets your attention faster than being told you have congestive heart failure. I am on some meds now, and there may be more in my future as I am reminded almost daily that I am an elderly woman now.
OOOO Maribeth~~~tough times. You’ve been doing so well…holding it all together. I’m really sorry things are moving in a worrisome direction. ~~sending hugs and much love, Linda
Prayers for you all, especially you and Lili, as you navigate health issues and life without Jack. If you want to talk, I’ve been in congestive heart failure for quite a few years.
I’m so sorry ringer all that has been going on. I’m be sending good vibes for you and Lili.
Oh gosh that should say, “I’m so sorry to hear all that is going on…”
