A New Chapter

[PigPen]

Sending you some love this morning E, this is a hard chapter but the one where you get to heal some big wounds and move forward.

Hope everything turns out ok with your pup!

Big hug,

Mu, my pup has had that done twice. It does a great job for the dogs. Good luck!

PP,

My girl had her drain removed yesterday and seems to be healing well. We're still waiting for results of the biopsy though.

Having a hard time today. It's my boy's first weekend with Dad, and my birthday is tomorrow. I had a list to do around the house and only got two of the things done. I wish I didn't think everything was going to be fine with my list because then I was sidelined by grief today.

I'm going out now with some friends for a game night, but I'm afraid I'll cry when I'm there. I know, that's a good thing, but I still fight the need to act as if all the time.

There's my journaling.

Be well, friends.

Happy early birthday, E!! I am glad you are going out with friends. I bet it helps you feel better and lifts your spirits. The grieving days that come on are no fun, but necessary.

What are you doing for your actual birthday

So we got the biopsy done on my pup and it wasn't good. Soft tissue sarcoma grade lll. Mitotic index of 23 per 10 high power fields. So we see what we can do for time left with me and enjoy the dance. At 14, I'm not putting her through treatment.

Sorry to hear this news. Pets become part of us. The easiest relationships we have.

I was sorry to read the news Elly. Try to enjoy each day. Do you have any idea of how much time you have together? Dogs tend to stay in the moment, try to do the same. Be well and savoir the time together.

Thanks Mbebos and Mu. I will find out more of a timeline this Saturday. She is feeling good and wants to play, so we'll have as much fun as possible.

The week is going okay. I had a hard time coming home alone last night, but when I actually got home, I was better. As our pup was originally my H's, I had to tell him the news yesterday too. He told me he would call last night, but he forgot. I didn't text or call him...just let it be. Got an apology text this morning, I replied that it was totally okay. Then the conversation stopped.

H cancelled out on family dinner night with us tonight. I said fine, but then had to handle the fallout from our s's disappointment.

This is the primary reason why I am staying in my home. I could never do this to my kids. This is not about your husband missing a dinner, that happens to everyone. Your son is upset because his world is changing. Your husband missing dinner reminds your son the his father will will not be in his life, not like before. The foundation of his life has changed for the worse. Your son is paying the price for your husbands choice.

I'm sorry if it seems I'm rubbing your nose in it. My heart goes out to your little guy. He must look up to his dad and feel bad, like his father has rejected him and you, that's a real gut punch. A four year old boy needs his father, I'm so sorry Elly.
