Oh NO! Not Wizard. Not Wizard. He's supposed to live forever!!! Oh, I'm so sorry Windsor. Hugs to you both. I'm sure you are suffering at least as much as he is. Love, love, love from all of us here.
Love, Ima

Re: Time for some gentle vibes for DukeRah
Wizard update ... he has gotten two rounds of (home administered) subcutaneous fluids which has perked him up some. He doesn't mind it, and is has improved his quality of life for the time he has left. It is still short...but frankly yesterday I thought today or tomorrow I would be calling the vet. We went for a (very) short walk which pleased him. As long as he is happy I will continue supportive care. He is curled up at my feet, sleeping the deep sleep of an old dog.
All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Re: Time for some gentle vibes for DukeRah
It's about the same around here, Windsor. Murphy is on LOTS of Prednisone. Still gets excited to see Sarah come home. But wears out quickly and is clearly in pain when he moves around. That tail keeps wagging even though he's just lying around. Hard to believe the end really is coming before long. Still loves his Frosty Paws and she gives him all he wants!
This is no fun, is it. Love, love, Ima
