Writing about all the big & little things

Dende is in the hospital…

Tim took Dende to the emergency vet this morning and they are keeping him for the day at the pet hospital to monitor him. He hasn’t had anything to eat or drink for a day and a half, so he’s dehydrated. He’s been excessively lethargic and is pooping blood. They said they couldn’t diagnose him one way or the other with him being so dehydrated, so after the pump fluids back into him they’ll be able to figure out more. Unfortunately we are at a tough point having to balance a lot of variables: wanting to keep him around, knowing he’s getting older, already having lymphoma, money being tight and then batting with the whole “he’s just a dog” but also part of our family… They did say he has a fever so that would indicate an infection, but again we don’t know much.

We said goodbye to him this morning just in case… 🙁
