We had an appt to put Junior down this morning at 9, but Brian wanted to cancel right before.  We are going to keep an eye on him.  We have no doubt that he's near the end, but we are hoping he can perk up for a bit.  He will drink some water (from the toilet bowl...)  Like most dogs, he's always loved getting toilet water, but I freak out whenever anyone leaves it open.  Brian, out of a desperate attempt to have Junior drink, started intentionally leaving the toilet seats up.  Junior has drank some, which is good to see.  He will also eat a few potato chips, and he ate some bread w/ pb this morning.  We realize this isn't at all healthy, but we would rather he eat something than nothing at all.  I told Brian that I think Junior decided to stick it out a little longer, if he's going to be able to eat like that and drink from the toilet ; )  I'm doing better today, but I'm exhausted....This is too much.  My diet continues to suck, in the worst way, but that's the way it is right now.  I'm hoping I can get my head on straig

Hey Jen.
I'm so sorry to hear about Jr. I know right where you are. We (and I mean Bob) had to take our dog, Zeke, to be put to sleep in May. Zeke was 14 and I swear had Altzheimers (sp). He would have good days that gave me hope, then days it was hard to watch. I couldn't take it and couldn't even go with him to the vet. I bawled like I haven't in years when he was gone. I know Junior is grateful for his time with such a good family and appreciates all the special little things you do that make him happy... even if it means you have to leave the toilet seat up! Sending a big hug to you my friend.

Okay, the emotional eating can be a problem, but sometimes I think it's necessary in such a time of stress. Just try not to over do it. (Like I should talk.) Take care Jen & go get some hugs from those boys. Love you.
E.
