Laddie

Laddie dog's had it tough this week. On Monday, he started throwing up. He couldn't even keep water down. He also had LARGE quantities of blood in his urine. I thought this was it, that the cancer had gotten the best of him and he was dying. I took him to the vet first thing Tuesday morning. The vet confirmed that he was very sick. They did tests and found that the cancer now fills a large part of his bladder. They kept him overnight on fluids and meds. I picked him up after work on Wednesday. He wouldn't eat or drink anything. On Thursday morning I stuffed some medicine down his throat, but he still wouldn't eat. When I got home from work Laddie met me at the door with his tail wagging. I asked if he wanted to go for a walk, and he got very excited. So we went for a walk. I let him lead and go wherever he wanted to go. He loved it. When we got home, I offered him some cheese, and he ATE it!! So, long story short, Laddie is now eating and drinking and seems to feel fine. I don't know how much more time he has, but he's going to be the most loved dog in the world until that time comes.
