Another LO
Posted on | February 24, 2008 | 1 Comment |
Well, M’s been really sick since Friday. Friday I was feeling a lot better but we stayed home because Emma had a little fever and the doc said to just give her some meds and monitor her condition. It’s Sunday and even though it wasn’t 103 like it was Friday night. We had to put her in lukewarm water to cool her off. She was cold but so tough. That night her temp didn’t go down much, stayed at 101-102 but she was mentally aware and normal. Yesterday afternoon she was more chipper and her body temp was close to normal but last night, she still had a temp. Now she’s still warm, not bad, but warm still and since last night she’s have some blood coming out of her nose if she blows too hard. Poor thing. Earlier today I was doing some cleaning and I stripped her bed setting and used the puppy urine and odor remover to clean the blood off her baby dolls. We use Nature’s Miracle and wow, it worked like miracles. Now I just need to stick all them babies in the wash. So tomorrow we’re going to visit the doc.
Due to taking care of M and trying to get the funk out of myself, I’ve only been able to do digi pages since my last card. I’ve been laying next to her a lot if I’m not fixing food or cleaning. So I’ll be on the laptop while she watches a movie or sleep at night — yeah, I’ve been sleeping with her and waking up every hour. Today, I got this LO done.
I have been meaning to scrap this picture that was taken in 2005. Finally I got to do it. Kato passed away suddenly last summer. He was my baby. I got him soon after I graduated and he’s the sweetest cocker. He has his issues, he had separation anxiety and he’d roam the neighborhood if I let him but besides that, he’s just the sweetest. He died of sudden liver cancer. He was only sick for a few days and he died at the vet’s office while the vet was waiting for the results. It was sad because I didn’t get to say goodbye properly but at the same time he didn’t suffer long. He’s buried on our acreage and it’s interesting that the two dogs would go up there now and then and linger there as if to say hello.

Oh there was a story to this… Emma was about 18-months-old when this incident happened.
Kato was sleeping peacefully in his little bed when Emma came in, pushed Kato out of the bed, and plopped herself on his bed. While she drew, with no idea on what just happened, Kato sat, just right there, looking so sad but waiting so patiently for her to move. This scene lasted almost a good few minutes. If I didn’t ask Emma to move, this would probably have gone a bit longer.
Right after Emma got up, Kato didn’t waste a second and he jumped back on his bed and continued on with his slumber.
He was such a great dog. We still miss him so much. There are so many memories but the one that stands out the most is his patience with Emma. Hope Emma can remember Kato. If not, hope this photo can help share his love for our little girl.
