Birthday Girl


There's another birthday in the cottage today as Meg is ten today.
With milky eyes, increasing weight loss, and  occasional incontinence,  Meg seems to be fadingvery fast  in front of our eyes.
She had one of her vague fits last night, the first one in well over 18 months, and is at times very restless and bothered with things.
Yet, in the quiet of the early morning. She climbed up into my lap wanting to see, what I found so fascinating on the ipad

My old birthday girl

  8. It is hard John to watch our dogs fade before our eyes. She is a bit young I would have thought - but you never know with dogs. Tess is seven now and I just hope she lasts a lot longer, Happy birthday dear old Meg. It is nice for you to share a birthday.
