Day 293 - It's been a rough week...and it's just Tuesday!

We had a pretty rough night last night....no - nothing is wrong with Allie baby...but this time...with our Lando baby. He started dry heaving last night and just acting weird. I did some research on bloat or the correct medical term GDV - and he was experiencing all the symptoms. Brad took him to the emergency vet last night and he did have early stages of GDV. We caught it early enough and he was treated and left overnight for observation. Lots of dollars later - he still has gas in his stomach but the swelling is down, xrays showed a mass in his abdomen, which they think could be cancer, but can't verify without doing exploratory surgery and he had a seizure this morning. Whew....it was a lot to chew last night and even harder to deal with this morning after Brad picked him up. He's resting pretty well right now, so all is well for now with Lando baby!

It rained pretty hard today with heavy wind and thunderstorms. There was an accident on the interstate so Brad had to pick Allie up. When I got home, I noticed that our backyard was pretty flooded. Once Brad got home, he asked if I had stepped outside yet. As I stepped onto the back porch...this is what I saw...



Then, looking at Allie's report from the daycare, they commented that she was fussy today. Fussy? My Allie girl? I didn't think anything of it until after her dinner when I picked her up to hug her. Hmmm - she felt warm. I took her temperature...102 degrees...

A deep breath.....

Dog, tree, fever and then work on top of all that....

What's a girl to do? I wish my mom were here....

But after some baby fever reducer....someone went to sleep just fine. Sweet dreams baby girl - one of us deserves to sleep hard!
