Me & My Shadow

 Pretty much any time I look down, this is what I see:


That's my Ernie,  always at my feet.  I give her meds several times a day, plus I do her feedings, and I make sure she's getting brushed well now that shedding season is here again.  So, you know, she's pretty much my shadow, all day, every day.

Which is why I was so shocked when I looked at this photo of her sleeping on the sofa:

 

To me, it looks like someone let her air out.  I know she's lost weight, but.....oh my!  The poor little thing.  So far, she's doing okay on her new meds.  Not great, but better than the vet expected.  I am very grateful because there are no more treatment options.   If her meds quit working, it will be time to let her go.  I am so going to be a basket case.

  2. You are right, it will be hard when the time comes. The only comfort is she won't be suffering, but it hurts so much. Just enjoy her as much as possible.

  3. Such a sweetie. Each day with Ernie is a gift. Enjoy it and treasure the memories. They'll help get you through when she is gone.
