A dogs tale

Dr. Visit

July, 2007

Momma had to take me to the Dr. I have something on my nose. It keeps growing and its kinda uncomfortable. Mommy thinks and hopes its just an abscessed tooth, but the Dr's tell her other wise. They say they want to do a biopsy on me, what ever the heck that is. Mommy is sad and very scared. I don't know why she is so sad, I'm still gonna love her no matter what this biopsy thing is. The Dr's cleaned my teeth and they put something over my nose, I'm feeling drowsy, I think.........snoooze.........
Hours later I wake up, I'm kinda sore, a lil drowsy....all I wanna do is roll over and lick......wait a min....they're gone....my man hood has been taken from me, what did I do to deserve this, if this is what a biopsy is, then I want to take it back, I don't want it anymore..(lies around and sulks a while)
yay its my mommy! I missed you mommy!!! We get to go home now? The dr. did something awful to me mommy, I don't know if I'm a boy anymore...but I love you, I love you, yaya there's the truck, the dr said something about u gettin my results in a week, but I don't have to come back here do I? Please no mommy, I wanna stay home with sissy. Promise u wont make me come back, its untelling what else they may steal from me....
I can hear mommy and daddy talking...They gave the Dr. permission to take my stuff away, while I was asleep, and while she was doing the biopsy. I can't believe it, it had to be daddy's idea, mommy would never do that to me....would she? sighs, I just don't know....oooooooh the ball, gimme the ball, woo hoo, she threw it!!!!! aww mommy, I forgive you, I bet the ole Dr. tricked you into them taking my stuff, didn't she?
*a week later* Grandma Lori and her cockapoo baby came to stay with us today. Grandma Lori's house burnt early this morning...Baby's being mean and trying to take over my territory, but she's real pretty, I want her to be my girlfriend. Yay mom is home, they went to go and chk out the damage of the house. Wait!!!! Something is wrong, Mommy is really sad! She picks me up and holds me for sooo long. She is crying. She says the Dr. got the results today. Mommy says that I have a malignant tumor, and its only gonna get bigger. Its something called Fibro sarcoma. I don't like it, whatever it is. I wish my mommy wasn't so sad, I hope she knows I love her and I always will. And I know she loves me. I'm her baby boy! She even likes me better than my stupid ole sister and those darn cats, I'm her favorite! I just know it! But even though I keep licking her tears away, they just keep coming. I'm trying to stop them for you mommy, but they won't stop.
I over hear mommy tellin G-ma Lori something about it being in my jaw bone. They've given me some sort of steroid to slow down the growth. But it's not gonna stop it completely. Mommy say's I'm not gonna be with her very much longer. I don't want to leave you mommy, I swear! I love you. You rescued me, you save my life. I'm gonna fight for you mommy. I'm gonna stay around as long as I can. As long as I can still eat and play, I'm gonna stay strong for you. But when that day comes Mommy, Please know that I will always love you, and I know that you will always love me. Stay strong, and when that time comes, come back and read this, and remember me at my best!

Love you Always Mommy and Daddy!
Jax

P.S. I guess Lil bit can have my ball, but she'd better not chew it up, like she does everything else. And tell the cats, that even tho I want to chase them, and possibly hunt them, I kinda like them 2. And tell them I love them all!

From Mom (Mary): It was really hard for me to write this. I tried to make it as humorous as I could, so when I do lose my baby, I can come back and read this, and remember his fun loving hiper nature. He is a really good boy. So far he has survived 5months. And I'm hoping he has at least 5more left in him. I love him with all my heart and soul. Even though I rescued him, In all honestly, He rescued ME!!! God chose for me and him to meet, and it has been an honor taking care of him for these 3years. I LOVE YOU JAX. You can never be replaced in my heart!
Love Always,
Mommy

runnin' round

Well today started off good. As I woke from my sleep I could feel the warmth of the bed underneath me. I stretch out, do my cute little yawn, then get up. My first instinct is to go and bully the puppy for barking and waking me up, however she is in her personal room and I cannot get to her. I finally get up from my spot, feeling the "first of the morning" energy taking over rapidly. I need to go out, and the alarm is now buzzing and thats driving me insane. I walk casually up to my Mary's face, and begin to lick, and place my cold nose up against it. If that doesnt work I switch sides of the bed and go for my Dan. Now there both up, and its time for me to go out. And lil' bit too. (hopefully she will stop barking, sometimes she barkes all the time....I love her to death but she just drives me insane, chasing me around all the time and biting my little stub of a tail.) She is very cute though! Today I decide I had been on my chain long enough. My grandpa Danny was over at our house and I just couldnt help but get off and run free. His mother Flo caught me, which is very surprising to Mary and Dan, usually I like to run and I wont come to ppl other than them, half the time when I get lose at our house I will only come when they go to the car and open the door. I love to ride, and I will just run up and jump right in the car. I love my Mary and Dan though. They Play with me, and throw my ball for me to chase. And they teach me and the Lil Bit tricks and if were good, we'll get a meaty dog treat....yummy I love meaty dog treats...woof woof!!! *wagging tale* But I have to go now Diary my mommy and daddy have to go to work. Me and bit have the whole house to our selves until 1130. It was so much peacful before lil bit was here, but now she has grown on my quite a bit. Now I have the responsability to watch her while my mommy and daddy are at work and try to keep her from tearing everything up. I try to be a good new brother.
Bye,
JAX
