Three Months

It has been three months taking care of Snoopy. My poor Snoopy may have suffered but still, I am not going to put him to sleep. Putting him to sleep and sending him to dog heaven may end his and my misery but that is not a way out of this for us. His demise has to be natural. It has to be God's will.

This past three months, I have been through a lot; through Snoopy's incessant crying for three long weeks, through Snoopy's passing of pus, urinating blood, through his pressure sores with a gaping hole which I am still dressing and cleaning three to four times a day, through the weakness of his bladder muscles which makes him incapable of pissing on his own and I have to apply pressure on his bladder, through infections and medication and special diet.

Seriously, I do not know how I coped and how I will cope. There has been too much cussing and swearing, not at Snoopy but at the situation, at the time I have lost, at my inability to concentrate on work, if any gets done at all.

All I seem to do for these past three months has revolved around Snoopy and sleep in between, work in between and fitting trips to the vet in between. And the time that I could spend in front of the computer is just to play Mafia Wars and other no-brainer games on Facebook just because I can't sit long enough to string a coherent sentence. BUT what doesn't kill me will only make me stronger.
