Well my day started with leaving the hospital this morning (my son had a sleep study) with no sleep and going to work. When I got to work my neighbor called me he was to feed and water our animals this morning because my son's sleep study was for last night and all day today. He called to let me know that my beloved dog Kato 13 years old had died. I feel so awful for not being here. So I ended up leaving work and going back to the hospital. I didn't want to tell my son until we got home. When we got home we told my son and he is devastated. Kato was a very special dog. Matthew has seizures and this dog knew before the seizure would start that it was coming. He also knew when my son would be asleep and get fever or sick. My family all showed up and we had a small memorial for Kato. This is how special he is.
To make the day worse when I got home I realized that the freezer has been pushed open by some food and everything had thawed and made a huge mess.
Then the day just kept getting worse my little chihuahua has apparently gotten into a fight with my cat and his eye is not looking so good. I will need to take him to the vet in the morning.
When it rains it pours and I not sure how much more can pour down on me before I break.

Sending you a big cyber hug, Beth. So sorry to hear about your special Kato. He sounds like an amazing companion and family member :( I can so relate right now to your news about him and how difficult it is :(
We're having to put our 16 yr old cat, Melee, to sleep (this sat)due to his rapidly declining health - it's so hard. I've been talking to Em about how ill he is, how bad he seems to feel, and about how he's not going to be around much longer - trying to prepare her. I get choked up just thinking about it. I've had he and his sister, Maggie, since they were babies...well before I was even married and had a child :( So my heart goes out to you and your family.
Freezer thing - you shoulda seen my freezer and fridge and aquarium after we returned post katrina. There had been no power for 2 weeks (and it didn't come back on for another 40 days) so you can imagine :) Then multiply the smell coming from every other home for miles and miles and miles around, and well, let's just say it was SOME nasty stuff :)
Hang in there, sweetie, we'll get through this and be better for it.
I'm sorry for your loss. Kato sounds like he was really a great dog.
