Pray for a Dog

Yesterday Grendel took an alarming turn for the worst. Where as before only his right front paw was unstable, yesterday he was very shaky on all four legs and his right front paw was totally non-functional. He seemed quite unsettled. Last night I stayed awake with Grendel until he finally went to sleep. I took him into the vet today.

The Shabazz-man was not very comforting. He said it was not arthritis. He said that based on the configuration of the paw and the stiffness of the limb it appeared to be one of two things: an advanced tumor of the spine or some sort of degenerative spine disease. He was alarmed at the progression (we had taken Grendel in three weeks ago for his annual and there was no signficant problem besides a stiffness in the legs and the loss of a few front teeth)

Sp Grendel is spending the night at the Shabazz-man's and he will have X-rays and other diagnostics. If you are inclined to pray for a dog, pray that he remains pain-free. Pray that we have the strength to do what is needful. If you have a dog, give him love. Kiss him and tell him you love him. As Grendel would say, Do It Now!

I will keep you posted.

Having gone through what you are going through just this past February, I can so feel what you are feeling. I wish I had the power or whatever to help you and your buddy at this time. If it helps even a little bit, please know that somewhere in Florida there is a person thinking about you. I wish words could help, but I know they can't. But let me just say, that I love you because you love your little dog.

Sending good thoughts from Oregon.

I'm always inclined to pray for a dog, perhaps even more than some humans. Prayers go out to you dear Grendel.
