Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?

I've noticed that as well. Quite a few of the younger surgeons cause more than the older surgeons especially down here

The last night with my Lab was one of the worst, if not THE worst night of my life.  He was in so much pain from his hip and there was nothing I could do to help him.  We were up all night together.  I already had him so doped up with painkillers, natural valerian calming supplements, etc.  I was just praying for the morning to come so the vet would get to my house.  I had to carry him out to potty the last 2 days because he couldn't manage the stairs.  That night his one remaining hind leg just couldn't hold him up anymore at all, so he wouldn't poop.  After trying one more time and carrying him back in the house again (I knew he had to go, but wouldn't go while laying down in the grass), I laid him down on the carpet while I took off my coat.  I heard a toot and thought "uh, oh" and he had pooped a little on the floor, but when I looked at him, he had such a horrified look in his eyes it broke my heart.  I just told him "It's OK Bear.  Go potty." and with my permission, he did.  I can't explain the look in his eyes.  Some would say he just couldn't hold it anymore and would have gone anyway, but if you would have seen the look in his eyes... trusting that it really was OK and then no sign of guilt for going on the floor (like would have normally happened), just relief.  I don't know, it sounds stupid, but in that moment I felt like there was perfect understanding between us.

 

That dog knew so much, and loved us so much, and was so loyal.  The smartest dog I'll probably ever have.  No one will ever convince me that they don't love and understand way more than most people give them credit for.

 

 

 

This made me cry, Christine.  I know that look.  hugs.gif  

 

I'm so sorry for your pain.  No one will ever convince me, either, that they don't love and understand.  I had a pretty big discussion in our Sunday School group about this.

Hey, it rhymes with Pee.  "Go Pee, Tennessee".  Catchy.

 

We named our lab "Biscuit", then later realized that "Biscuit sit" wasn't going to work very well.  So we had to change "sit" to "down".  Then "down" had to become "rest".  It was a mess.  Good thing she's smart.  We named our beagle "Dixie", but for some reason, we call her "Dixie Doodle".  My daughter named her frenchie "Kora", but we call her "Pig".  She doesn't even come to "Kora"....just "Pig".  We've always got to come up with something silly, so we can sing their name.
