Tuesday night – rock in my stomach

OK.. not a rock in my stomach.. but a rock in Chai’s stomach.. or actually her small intestine. Chai’s been feeling poorly for a couple of weeks. she’s been waking up in the middle of the night and throwing up almost every night. We knew something was up.. but just attributed it to all the grass she was eating.. Saturday night she started feeling worse.. her tail was between her legs, she didn’t want to play.. or eat.. or drink.. She laid around all Sunday and ate nothing.. we new she had to see the Vet. Today Diane took her in for an Xray.. and sure enough there in her belly was a huge something..  She was really dehydrated/ She went in for emergency surgery . They found a huge rock in there.. probably from our driveway.. this would be the 2nd one we’ve had to get surgically removed from this silly girl.  She’s doing fine now and spending the night at the vet.  I cant tell you howm much I miss her.

 I told the stry to Jen and she told me that they once took her dearly departed dog Freddie to the vet..to get an Xray and found that he’d been carrying around a superball in his tummy for years..

dogs…. !

Asude from that.. it was a rough day.. a fair bit of strife and agrivation at work.. then at 6  a frustrating session at the haunted forest trying to get the beast working well We ended up having to take off his head and arms .. in the dark.  That’s a pretty tricky battlefield repair because of all the wires to his head.. We had a ton of help and managed to fix the problem.   It’s just not fun to have to work under those conditions…

I got in bed at 9:L30.. and here I amstill typing at 12.. time for sleep.. Nite all. sleep well at the vet Chai-baby.. nite Sam
