It's taken me almost 6 months to be able to make this entry in the diary..
AJ went to the Bridge July 27, 09.. Cancer had advanced to the point that pain meds would soon not be of any help and I didn't want him to suffer.
He was a wonderful friend and companion and we miss him..
He was my handsome AJ, my Velcro Boy.

Mom was sitting outside on the deck in the porch swing, reading a book and enjoying the sounds of birds singing, the nice weather...
Without looking up from her book, she knew that I had walked up to stand in front of her, not pawing at her, but just standing quietly.
Mom reached out her hand and patted the top of my head. I didn't move.
After awhile, Mom reached out again without raising her eyes from her book, and patted the top of my head. I still didn't move.
Mom suddenly realized that I had been standing in front of her for quite awhile and she reached out her hand again to touch me and at the same time, looked at me.
She gave a little screech as I tried to give her my gift of a very large dead gopher that I had caught, and had been standing in front of her with it hanging out of both sides of my mouth, just waiting for her to take it.
I should have known that she wouldn't appreciate it. I used to drop the dead critters in her lap and she would get upset, so I figured if I would just hold it, she would be happier about getting it.
She wasn't.

Well, I did it again.. I stepped on something and cut my foot. Mom says that is there is anything out in the field that even resembles something sharp, I'll find it.
This time, it wasn't "too bad", I only had to wear a bandage for two days, but I still have to take some uckey pills for a week. One good thing, Mom dips them in peanut butter before she gives them to me.. *YUM*
Bad news, though.. nice Dr. Jen checked the lump above my tail and said it's growing so it has to be removed.. *sigh.. I went through this once before with a lump on my side and mom said that the incision was SO big, it was scary! There's a word that mom uses.. she calls the lump "maybe a See lump".. whatever that is, but I know she seems kind of worried.
Anyway, life is good. I gained back the weight that mom made me lose and I'm again up to 94 pounds. Dr. Jen frowned when she found out. hmmm.. mom TRIED to explain to the Dr that it was because of winter when I do a lot of sleeping, but the Dr wasn't buying mom's excuses, sooo, it looks like I'm gonna have to go on another diet.. *sigh..
