It won't let me upload any pictures again. I'll try again next time. Sorry.
Today is just an "ok" day for Mike. I guess that's better than a bad day, so I should be grateful, but it's hard because he's having breathing problems when he's sleeping or at rest the past two days. Even now, as he's laying next to my chair, his breathing just doesn't sound right.
Plus, he's walking like a very old man today. He looks crooked. I'm thinking it could be because since it took so long for his leg to heal that maybe it didn't heal the way it should and possibly made his spine a bit crooked. It looks like his front leg are in perfect allignment, but from his shoulders back to his hips they just don't look right. I could tell he's lost a little more weight too, even though his appetite has been good... it's so sad to see my beautiful boy like this.
But.. I do have to say, he manages to get the energy to play with his sister a few times a day. I really think her energy and enthusiasm for life is helping him keep going. She really is good for him. And since the Pepcid has kicked in... he doesn't get an upset stomach, so I could let him play until he gets tired.
I just looked outside... oh my gosh... it's snowing... NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.... we don't need this anymore......... help!!!! They said it was coming, but I didn't want to believe them.. guess I don't have much of a choice now do I? Oh well... we've got June to look forward to.. I "dare" it to snow in June (better not say that too loud huh?).
I pray everyone is safe and healthy and all the wonderful pets out there are getting all the help they need.
Take Care and God Bless
Oh... by the way... I bought a disposable camera and started taking pictures of my two babies... when I finish the roll, I'll get them developed and post some new ones.

Geesh Joanna, In a 3 day period we had 70 degree weather, that changed to a cold front with tornado warnings (and time in the basement) and storms, to rain. And today...snow! Hasn't this been strange?! Oh, yea, I forgot-we live in Ohio. If ya don't like the weather, just wait 15 minutes and it will change.
The snow didn't stick here and went back to rain, after a bit of sleet.
I hope Mike feels better tmw. Has the vet said what the breathing difficulty is from? I know she said it could be the cancer, but is it fluid?? I wish she would be able to check Mike. There has to be things that could make him more comfortable. If it's some fluid in his chest, a diuretic would help. Steroids may help depending on what the breathing difficulty is.
Do u feel like the vet has given up, or is she just not checking these things becuz of finances?
I am SO glad Katie is helping Mike. It's wonderful u have great memories of both ur kids together, and u got the camera. Pics are SO important. I hope ur bro or someone can get several pics of u and the kids together.
Give those sweet Westies some smooches, hugs and scritches from Auntie Cindy. Schnauzie kisses!
