Rough Week

Please say a prayer for my little family this week if you get the chance.  It has been a rough one.  Wednesday we found out that our oldest dog has a mass in her lungs.  Unfortunately, the vet doesn't want to biopsy it because it would cause her too much stress.  So we just have to wait and see...the good news is that her white blood cell count was not elevated.

Thursday we took Gray for his 6 month appointment and his doctor told us that we need to take him to physical therapy.  It makes me so very sad...but lucky at the same time because it is not for anything big.  Gray only wants to turn his head one direction. {stubborn} So they want us to learn some exercises for him to do.

At his appointment my teeth started hurting terribly.  I called the dentist but the only appointment they had was for today.  It hurt so bad that I went to urgent care for some pain control.  Well...it helps for about 2 hours and then makes me feel loopy.  No more pain medicine for me...so I have been popping tylenol and motrin for 4 days.  Last night it actually made me sick...so on top of extreme pain I am now throwing up.  Awesome.  Sorry- I get a little sassy when I do not feel good. I went to the dentist this afternoon and I need a root canal!!!!  I have never had one but this pain has to go away.  I told Artie that he was going to have to drop me off at psych ward if it did not get fixed soon.  Last night was terrible...the worst pain I have ever felt.  

So.  I am hoping that after tomorrow this week will turn around.  No pictures today.

You poor thing! When it rains, it pours, huh?

I had to do at-home therapy with Katie because she only wanted to turn her head one way. It was no big deal and after a few weeks, she was doing much better!!

Also, last year, I had an abcessed tooth. I completely understand the pain you are having. It's unlike any other pain I have EVER had in my entire life. It was unbearable and hit me out of the blue! I had a root canal and a crown! Even with my dental insurance, it cost me almost $1500 because it was one of my back teeth. Lovely. Did they give you some antibiotics to clear up any infection? After about 2 doses of the antibiotics, I was feeling better.

I'll say a prayer that God will take care of your family in your time of need.

Hang in there!!!
