Everything Takes A Back Seat

Snoopy is taking a lot longer to recover and the damage left behind by this bout of tick parasite infection is really nothing to laugh about. Right now, he is still bedridden and it has been over two weeks already.

I keep thinking that if Snoopy doesn't get well, then let him die. At least he would be free from his suffering body. Death isn't something to be afraid of; the pain comes from dying and not death itself. It pains me to see him like this. Each time I get frustrated with him, for having to care for him and not being able to do this and that, I try to think that these are Snoopy's final days, which could be a week, a month or even several months.

I have decided to put everything aside, including non essential work so as to lessen my own frustrations. There's no point giving myself extra pressure in trying to earn enough money for the month plus cover Snoopy's mounting medical expenses and special diet and supplements. If necessary, I would have to dig my savings though I loathe doing so but I believe that I could make up for this monetary loss later when Snoopy finally leaves me. In view of this, I have also decided to put buying a car on hold. After all, it's not like I need it right now. I can't even go anywhere taking care of Snoopy around the clock.
