daily slice-of-life photo blog of a Gen-X dad
Mariko had some guests over for lunch today, and one of them brought their dog, May, along. She was very interested in the karaage and kept a close eye on it the whole time. Watching her was such a flashback, she reminded me so much of Lani.
Lani’s resting comfortably at home. She’s very weak now and cannot stand by herself for more than a few seconds, so we’re helping her as much as possible for as long as she has left. We’re happy that she’s not suffering or in any pain, and can enjoy the endless pampering, attention, and pets she’s receiving.
Another photo of Lani, resting on her bed. 🐶
We continue to take care of Lani, who is still not eating. But she still says hi to everyone!
During Lani’s illness, we’ve taken her outside quite a bit so she can enjoy the mild weather. When she was well, she used to kick back in the sun. It must be nice to take in all the smells and sounds!
Lani is back home after her stay at the animal hospital. We have lots of medications for her so she’s not well yet, but hopefully she will recover. The diagnosis is PLE or Protein-losing enteropathy, and she’ll have to be on a special diet. We’re crossing fingers that she’ll be able to continue living a happy life.
Lani has been ill for the past couple of weeks, and our vet couldn’t help her at the clinic so we checked her into the animal hospital where they are doing test and have her on different medications. I went to see her today and talk to the doctor. It looks like she’ll be staying in the hospital for at least another day while she regains her strength. 😢
