Choza is not doing well …

Choza (our Golden Retriever) has not eaten since Wednesday and she’s been in the vet hospital since Thursday morning. She even threw up two tiny ounces of a nutritional liquid by syringe today–and they are only able to keep her hydrated subcutaneously (under the skin). She’s bleeding in her diarrhea and is just so very, very sick.

I held her this morning and just cried.

Dr. Lain is going to do an exploratory surgery first thing tomorrow morning and try to repair whatever is wrong. But it doesn’t look good.

I have to be cheerful now because we’re having friends over in an hour. But I keep crying.

Thank God for His grace! I know He gives good gifts–like Goldens–for whatever time He deems best.
But it still hurts. A lot.

Thanks again for everyone who has called and emailed to check in and share your support and love.
I’ll let you know how tomorrow morning goes.

Love to all,
Tara B.
