Hi everyone! I'm back. I stayed with mama's friend Heidi while she went to Texas to my skin-sister's graduation from University on May 12. Then my skin-sister got married on May 19. My mama was gone for almost 2 weeks. I liked staying with Heidi, cause she has a Westie named Polly and we played alot. Well, I played alot and Polly let me jump on her. She's kind of old (eleven) but she was good to me.
But, I'm awfully glad mama's home now. My hip has been hurting since she left and I didn't know what to do about it except hold it up so I didn't have to walk on it. She took me to my vet last week and he made me go to sleep. I don't know why but mama said it was for a good reason. This week she took me to a new vet. It was a really cool place. The lady got down on the floor with me and looked in my mouth and up my tail! That was embarassing for goodness sake. Mama said it was OK for the lady to do that but I sure didn't think much of it. Then the vet came in and played with my legs and my hip. He made it hurt alot and I cried. But he petted me and held me close to his shoulder and told me he would make it all better.
So, mama told me tonight that I am going to that place again on Tuesday morning and they are going to give me a shot to make me sleep again like before and when I wake up, my leg will be very sore and the fur will be all gone and I won't feel very well. She said she is sorry that I have to go through this but that it will make me all better soon. She said I have something called hip dysplasia, whatever that is. I know it costs lots of money to have my hip fixed 'cause she sat down at the table with her bills and the checkbook last night and kept rubbing her forehead. She does that whenever she has to spend alot of money and it's a surprise.
I'm glad she loves me so much. I'm pretty lucky to have my mommy. She kisses me on the head all the time and says she's lucky to have me to love. I guess that means we're lucky to have each other!
It's time for me to go to bed so I'll talk to you soon diary. Good night.
Love,
Tink
