Dear Diary and furiends, Dad had a wonderful weekend and loved being home. He did most of his exercises but cheated on some. He is moving around with the cane and doing well. We had to change the house around a bit. Sadly we had to toss out Snickers bed. It was an over stuffed chair that he was given seven years ago when Mom and dad got new stuff to keep him off of the sofa. Since then they have even a newer sofa. His chair took up part of the doorway so it had to go. Have you ever seen a dog missing a chair. He has been so hyper.
He was also scared of the cane but he is much better since a few days have gone by. Mom takes dad to his PT and OT tomorrow so he will be out for the first time since coming home. He has a DR appointment every day this week. No rest for Mom. BOL!
I still fit right next to dad on the sofa in the crack. It is so warm there and nice. I am so close to daddy and he feels so warm on me. Almost as good as when I lay under the heater.
I have sent out thank yous. I think to every fur who was here fur us in our time of need. If you did not get one please send us a pawmail..we do not want to furget anyone. We also sent out more thank yous in the mail to those who sent cards. If you have not got yours yet please wait a couple days and let Mom know. They are cute notes , right from me.
I will close fur now and will update soon. I hope from here on in it will be good news. We are so ready to toss out 2009...
Dad is home !!! Oh my goodness it has been a long 2 and a half weeks. He came home today. With all kinds of funny things. He has this stick he uses to walk with. Mom says it is a cane. Doesn't look like any candy cane I have had before.
He has a walker and a shower chair all kinds of neat things. He is so happy to be home. Thank you fur all the prayers and to all who sent him cards and well wishes. He will be having PT and OT for weeks to come but we are praying for a full recovery.
Snickers is scared of daddy's cane. He acts like he thinks dad will hit him with it. So Mom was walking with it showing Snickers how it will not hurt him. He is already getting better about it. Him keeps laying on dads feet.
Me I am still Mom's baby. I sure missed my dad but I can be found in Mom's lap. After all I is her guard dog.
Mom hopes to be able to find sometime tomorrow to start writing Tha nks yous to all of our true friends.
Mom says no one ever wants to go through things like this but if they have to..they should all be members of dogster. You dawgs and Moms are what carried her through the two weeks . She would come home and find upliftting notes on facebook and notes on dogster and cards in the mailbox. It was a true blessing and we thank all of you from the bottom of our hearts.
I better go. Mom says we had a long day and it is time to call it a night. Thank you pals your the best!!!
I want to Thank Dogster fur DOTD. Fur once I was not writing to try to win but I was writing to let all my furiends know how dad was with out making 50 pawmails. I am lazy in that way. I am grateful I was picked and I know my dad was happy fur me. He got a big smile.
I hate to start with more bad news but I have decided to keep this diary to help myself cope. Today I heard that MC has passed away. He was a good pal of mine from The Wild West group. He was a kind tender loving cat who only wanted to be liked. He had a heart of gold. I know it because, he sent me beautiful flowers when dad got sick. ( he told me he stole them from a lady's garden. Mom says it is the thought that counts. ( big smile) Rest in Peace my dear Pal.
Last night while Mom was with dad. Grandma called to tell Mom that our two nephews were in ER room next to dad. They were t-boned in their SUV. A man ran a stop sign and hit them. The SUV rolled 5 times end over end. A side from minor cuts and scrapes they are OKAY. Please add them to my prayer list . Thank YOU.
Dad is walking good with his walker. Still sitting after only a little while because he gets out of breathe but he is coming along great. He is in a happy mood now. Loves his roommate and things are looking up. Thank you for your support. It has been worth a ton of gold. I always knew dogster people are kind loving people and boy has it been shown.
Your all great and I can never repay any of you for being there for us. My family is very grateful. Mom says she is getting drunk when 2009 ends because it is a year she would like to furget. ( She really doesn't mean that) BOL The drunk part.
I will close and write soon. Thank you dogster again!
