A squealy thing on wheels arrived and I sat with her while they did stuff to her. I don’t mind admitting, I was frightened and shaking a lot, but then they bundled her onto a bed thing and took her away.

    Aw it is so scary when you don’t know what is going on. So sweet of you to pop in a chicken treat! 😀
    I hope your Mum is soon back with you and you must take extra special care of her with lots of hugs. 😀 – Oh and some Good Food! 😀

    OMG, Ani! What a unplanned accident, and you are for hours in stress. You had a great compassion with your mom. All the best to her, and to you! Michael

    What an awful situation! I’m glad to hear everything’s better now–God bless!! Wallie was so scared when he was reading this post. We lost a little dog recently and there’s nothing worse than worrying about a family member.
