We had been away from just before Christmas Eve and only came back middle last week. So, the house has been unattended and it shows. The house is dusty with cobwebs in a number of corners and crevices and the lawns are overgrown, with leaves, twigs and debris of all kind building up on the driveway and everywhere. So Tress and I spent most of Saturday cleaning up.
Before the cleanup however, we went to a local Chinese restaurant on Friday night for a quick dinner, after I had taken LBJ to the vet (more of that later, see below). After dinner, we went back, and binged on an Amazon Prime series till midnight. So we slept in a little bit on Saturday before taking the younger one for a walk and then headed back for the cleanup. I needed some stuff from Bunnings however, and when I went in there, I indulged in the classic Bunnings snag on a slice of white bread…
After hours of cleaning up, Tress ducked out to get some takeaway lunch from our favourite Saturday spot at Brandon Park, and we had a very late lunch (well past 3pm). The house felt clean and fresh as we finally put our feet up, after cleaning ourselves up and walking the little fellow at the oval, later that night. Our thoughts soon turned to LBJ again.
As soon as we had put our feet up, LBJ left his bed and promptly went into another fit. These seizure have become more frequent. It happened twice last week which was why I took him to the vet last Friday. Dr Jason thinks there’s a tumour that is causing the neurological messing around that has caused the seizures. That he has been walking in circles with a cocked head, were typical symptoms. We discussed options, including end of life care. I got back and talked to Tress, and thought if he went into another seizure anytime soon, we’d give it a serious thought. That was Friday night. That Saturday night seizure told us something. Late that night, he got up, had another of his accidental wee and then cried and whined before I cradled and caressed him back to sleep.
I am ringing Dr Jason’s office shortly to ask for an appointment…
