Black Stuff

Well Blackie is gone. Clint and I put her down last night at our home. Dr. Welch let me take some injectable meds home so that we didn't have to stress Black out by driving her in the car to the vet. We are burying her today up at dad and ma's house around 4p.m. We are putting her in the little forrest area in their front yard.

Love, Jenny

Update on Black Stuff

The vet called on Saturday and it is Basal cell carcinoma, cancer. It is pretty far advanced and he gave her only a couple of weeks. She has slowed down how much she eats, but she is still eating about a can of food a day. Clint and I have decided not to prolong her suffering. We plan on taking her in this week to be put down. I am afraid of the effect it will have on Stubby if we let her keep going on like this. He has become her own little body guard. He is constantly checking on her and sleeping on the couch with her. I think it will make it harder on him when she goes. Thanks for all your support.

Love, Jenny
