End of life care for beloved fur baby

People don't talk about it much, but end of life care for a pet sucks. Dealing with an old dog with dementia, epilepsy and other health problems is exhausting and heartbreaking. The lack of sleep, the circus acts we do to get her to eat and take her meds, the night wandering and the potty accidents. The crying - us, not her. The not writing because I'm too exhausted to hold a coherent thought and keep falling asleep at my desk. The short tempers - again us, not her. 

Thank goodness for books, TV and video games. Those distractions are the only things keeping us sane. Being a type A, who prides herself on fixing problems when they arise, these past few months have brought me to my knees. Hubby is more laid back and handles it much better, but thank goodness we have each other. And tomorrow, we'll get up after a night of interrupted sleep and do it all over again. Because we love our little fur baby, and because she deserves the best end of life care we can give her. 

If you're going through the same thing with your pet, remember you are not alone. And kudos for sticking by your fur baby when things get tough.

Been a very tough year

I'm still here. It's just that we've had a very tough year. In January, my sister-in-law was diagnosed with cancer, which meant several months of going back and forth to SoCal to help her out. Sadly, she passed away in July. Hubby hit a cougar with his car on one of the long drives to the airport. I know, right?! Even the old-timers here in Oregon were shocked. Thankfully, he's okay, but the poor cougar and his car weren't as lucky. Our elderly dog started having health problems, which is never fun, since she's part of the family. And I got hit with several Meniere's attacks from all the stress, which of course, adds to the stress. Vicious cycle.

As of today, the cremation, memorial and spreading of ashes are over, a lawyer is taking care of probate, hubby's car is fixed and runs like new again, we got the dog on a regiment that's helping her quite a bit, and I'm nearing the end of my latest Meniere's attack.

Of course, dealing with all this life stuff has put me way behind on my latest novel. It was supposed to be released for the holidays this year but we're now shooting for next summer or fall. I'll keep everyone posted on that.

We hope to go a very long time without another year like this one and are looking forward to a quiet holiday season. In fact, we're treating ourselves to some new appliances soon, since the ones that came with this house are 20-years-old and showing their age. Hey, when you've had a year like ours, the little things can make a big impact.
