It has not been the greatest week. Actually all winter I have been having problems. My legs joints seem to be trying to go the same way as Neddy's. I have been into the Vet for this and on medication, which helped me at the beginning of Winter. The last few weeks I have been having a hard time walking or getting up from when I've been sleeping.

Last year, if you remember, I went down and could not get up. Momma had to help me out of the sitting position for nearly 2 weeks. That's when Dr.Boden put me on Rimady. I was doing really well when I went in December for my check up. Then about two weeks ago I tripped and fell to my side making me limp with my left hind leg. Now I'm having a problem with my front legs from putting more pressure on them. I don't cry out but that is not an indication on how much I may be hurting. I tore the nail out of it's bed two years ago and had to have surgery to repair it. I got it stuck in the security screen and jerked it out before Momma could help me. I did not cry out at all. In fact Momma would not have known how bad it was if she did not see blood everywhere.

Momma will be taking me to my vet on Monday if things have not changed. She is afraid I'm going to hurt myself worse being unstable like I am. Please anyone who may read this keep me in prayer. My Momma and Daddy are very worried about me. I still have a wonderful appetite, and still try to chase the cats away from my kibble (not that I can catch them),:) so that is great. My attitude is good, I'm not grouchy at all and still my same loving self. It's just that I cannot walk steadily. Please no rosies..that's not what I'm asking for at all. Just your love and prayers.

Love Sweet Caroline xoxoxo

Thank you Jakie, you are always so sweet to pray for us when we need it. Momma is sure hoping I don't have to go on stronger medication for this but of course will if needed. We love you and your dear Momma a lot.

Thank you Annie and Harley. Momma realizes I'm older and all but barely can stand the thought of me being in pain. We both appreciate your prayers and I will keep you updated.

Love Caroline xoxo

I told this to Annie, Lola and Chloe earlier but forgot to put it here.

Momma is holding off taking me to the vet. She's been making me rest and barely go outside to give my legs a chance to heal. I want to run and bark with Georgie and Buddy when we go out in the yard by the sidewalk and street. Too many things to see out there and I end up tripping on the lawn. So giving it a few days keeping me indoors and see how it goes

Love Caroline xoxo
