Do I need to call them, yet again, and update our flight info?
Sorry I have been MIA lately but I wanted to come by and say I am thinking of you, your family and especially Rufus. I know how hard it is too watch a beloved pet get so sick so suddenly. My dog that I had growing up from the age of 2 to 18 got sick suddenly and I was heartbroken. It is tough to see them suffer but I am happy you are able to still get in some wonderful moments with him.
It's OK - thank you for stopping by. I am sorry about your childhood pet, as well.
I keep telling myself that I knew he wouldn't live forever - but he has just always been so healthy, that it's hard to get over the shock.
I love that fabric -- I think you had showed me some of those in the past. You may want to inquire though b/c I think the cremation places have to put ashes in a sealed container. Doesn't mean you can't break it open though and do what you want to with the ashes.
Funny that you want to spread the ashes at the lake eventually -- I keep thinking of taking mine to Back Bay (ocean park) and spreading my last doggie's ashes there -- she loved walking along the beach.
I'm glad the Rufus made it up the stairs. I'm just amazed that for what he has not been keeping down that he still musters up such spurts of energy. Keep loving that good boy the way you do. He clearly recognizes it.
Thank you Andrea.
Rufus update:
He is still very tired. I figured it out today - and it's been 12 days already since he has been able to keep anything down. Even if we would have taken him to the vet the minute he threw up his first meal, it wouldn't have changed anything. Allison made pancakes for breakfast yesterday - he scarfed down 2 tiny ones. We have finally come to the realization, that once he throws up something, he refuses to eat it again... So, we are trying to play our cards right and come up with new ideas of what to feed him. Unfortunately, nothing we feed him stays down for more than a few hours. I just pray that he gets enough nutrition from those few hours - but I know he isn't. I know his body is just starting to shut down... we really have to say his name several times just to get him to look at us. However, I will say, that he does tend to perk up in the afternoons for a couple of hours... Not really perky or playful - but more alert and willing to go outside and willing to sit up.
Last night, he did something so precious. Allison and I decided to sleep in the livingroom and watch a movie (Fried Green Tomatoes) and V stayed over at a friend's house. So, I went upstairs to grab my pillow off the bed, before I knew it - I heard Rufus' collar jingle and I heard him attempting to come upstairs for the 3rd time yesterday... I stood at the top and I really had to coax him up those last few stairs - but he did it. He was about to lay down in Allison's door way, but I coaxed him down the hall to our bedroom. Josh has been trying to get Ruf to cuddle with him in bed for the last few days... See, Ruf isn't allowed in our bed - but since he was little, he would always sneak into it while we were at work, and we always knew because he would build a "nest" out of our blankets - and sometimes rip our comforters with his nails (our bed is pretty tall). Sometimes, we would let him into our bed when we were laying down for the night, and Josh and I would lay there and scratch his belly and then sleep with us for a few hours. So, last night, when Ruf came upstairs, I coaxed him into our room and then I lifted him into bed with Josh, and Ruf laid there for several hours getting his belly scratched, he was such a happy boy. I didin't hear him hop out of bed until about mid-night.
I did go up and take a picture of my two guys cuddling - but I promised Josh that I wouldn't post it on the internet anywhere - It is just the sweetest picture ever, and I am so glad I got it.
I've been a bit obsessive about the cameral lately - as if I don't have 9 million pictures of Ruf as it is, but I just keep taking pictures - I don't know why... It's as if I am trying to save every moment with him to my memory.
I am still angry about the fate he was dealt, but like Alli keeps telling me (how did she get so smart?) - we just have to be thankful for all the good years that we had with him. I have a lot of guilt for all the missed time with him - because for the first 2 years, he really wasn't a part of our family - we'd take him to the lake and stuff, but he was always an outside dog. It wasn't until Josh went to Iraq that I brought him into the house (daily) and I wouldn't let him leave - even after Josh came home. So, I am carrying a lot of guilt for all those missed moments - If only I knew then what I knew now. He has brought more joy to our lives than I could have ever imagined, and he truly completed our family.
It breaks my heart in every way imagineable that I can't do anything to save him, and we just have to sit here and watch him die.
***********************
I did manage to coax myself up to the sewing room yesterday, and I did manage to nearly complete V's Pirate applique.
I've changed my whole to do list and I've decided to get done what I can get done - but I am trying to sacrifice as little time as possible with Ruf, as I know that these last days before we leave for our trip, will be our last days with him.
My customs for the trip have now changed to... Completing the girls' Pirate t-shirts... If I have time, I will complete mine. I'd like to get to Alli's Dug wallet, as well. I've decided not to do a TS bag - it will just take too long and I'd have to work like a mad woman to complete it in time - I'd rather spend my time with Ruf. We have pleanty of customs, and it will be OK.
I am trying very hard to be excited for our trip, however, I know that under it all, the girls and I will be so very sad. I know that Ruf would want us to be happy, but it's so hard to be happy while we know he is suffering.
D~
", I won't.
love the fabric you have choosen, hope you can find it.
We are really relishing in the moments that we have him back, they seem to be getting fewer and fewer as the days go on. It is so very sad to watch.
