it's not over yet folks

As I said in my last post, this has been one tough week! It hasn't even been a full week yet either.

So, I had all that stuff last week with Courtney and her neurologist. Then this week it's been Buddy. Buddy has had dementia for some time now. He has bouts of it, it's not all the time. every time he has a bout, it gets worse and worse. He gets very confused, walks in circles, and forgets how to go outside, and goes potty inside, a lot, among other things. His quality of life is not the greatest. He is blind, going deaf, and forgetful. All he really does it eat, sleep and potty. Really. He's back to the newborn stage.

So, I also had to make the decision that it's time for Buddy to go to The Rainbow Bridge. We were going to wait until May 27th. That would be after Hubby is back, and after all our Air Force Academy graduation celebrations. But, it's been pretty bad the last 2 days. So, I changed the date to this Saturday.

All of this I have handled while Hubby is out of town. You know what I realized yesterday? I am pretty darn strong. I am a whole lot stronger than I ever gave myself credit for. I have not lost it, yet. Well, only once last week dealing with the Courtney stuff. Thankfully my sister was available to help out with that one.

Well, I am going to go veg out in front of the TV. I think I have earned it.
