Up all night

Felt like we had a baby in the house, and we sort of did.

Bob, now going on 9 years old, has arthritis, and due to the low pressure we have (I feel it too) his joints have been extra painful last few days. But over night it was difficult, he yelped in pain every time he changed position, and me, being a super light sleeper, rushed out in the living room every time to check on him and make sure he was as comfy as could be.

This morning I called his Vet and went over there and got some anti-inflammatory doggy pain pills. So hopefully they will work nicely, the poor thing. They said he could come in for a steroid shot if he needed it. He got one of those when his knee was swelled up once, and it really helped. So hopefully he can sleep comfortably today, and we too, tonight!

Nej fy vad jobbigt. Stackars sackars Bob!!! :-(
Inte lätt när djuren mår dåligt Man kan ju liksom inte förklara för dem varför de har ont eller att man försöker hjäpa dem.
Men du! TACK för de 5 myrorna!!!! De kom häromdagen!!! JÄTTEGULLIGT verkligen! :-)
Snart ska det nog bli en provtitt på dem! Jag minns ju inte så mycket från serien mer än vissa delar.
Men jag lär bli alldeles nostalgisk!
Kram!
