Livvey

Back in January, when Livvey (our dog) found us, I wasn't quite sure I wanted to be a two dog family. In fact, I fought that feeling for a long time. Two dogs was just too much.

This morning, I took Livvey to the vet to be fixed. I had to face the fact that I was so nervous for her. Leaving her there was like leaving one of my children behind. Weird hu! When I got home the kids were crying because they couldn't find her & she wasn't coming when they called her. Okay, okay. I get it. We love her. She's a little ray of sunshine that we've all come accustomed to having around. Her spunky little puppiness is addicting.

I just got a call from the vet's office. Livvey has cancerous tumors.

I've read up (a few months back) that mammary tumors can be problem if your dog isn't fixed. My heart is so sad. I cant imagine life without her around anymore. (I know, I know. That's so backwards for me to say. I'm eating crow right now.)

The good news is: that once we have the tumors removed and she's fixed, we shouldn't have to worry about it anymore. That's a huge relief.

Hopefully in 5 hours, when I go pick her up, my heart will be able to relax and all will be back to normal once again. Hopefully............
