Speaking of allergy/sinus/colds. I've been fighting it for 3 weeks now. Started with alle4gies h gradially m9rphed into a head cold. 3 years ago, pre-vape days, it would uave be3n in my chest h becoming bronchitis within 24 hours. Now, it is just now trying to go into my chest. I had a PCP appt today for follow up on bp med & she was very impressed that it hasn't gone into my chest before now, but considering my suppressed immune system she's not surprised I haven't been able to shake it. So an Rx for Cipro, & a cough syrup to take along with the Mucinex. Glad a say bye to the Nyquil.

Blecch day. Fortunately I did work from home today because of heavy snow, so was accessible
Our 8-1/2 yo lab, Jasmine, had seemed listless, not hungry, Sunday, then was okay Monday and Tuesday until dinnertime; back to low energy and no hunger.
My wife said Jasmine was looking worse just after noon, so we schlepped through the snow to a local emergency clinic, that turned out to only be open nights and weekends.
Our vet was able to schedule us due to cancellations. X-rays showed massive lung cancer. DW wanted to bring her back home for a few more days. I carried her back in, put her on one of the big dog pillows. Jasmine died, peacefully, within 90 minutes of getting back home.

Darn it, that's not good!
While 4-footed, they ARE family members, and sorely missed. At least she passed at home with loved ones.

So very, very sorry. They are our babies. So glad she went peacefully. I wish you and your family peace and comfort in the coming months. My heart hurts for you!
Oh no, Mark, I'm so sorry! It's good you were there for her at the end, tho. These things are so hard. Family is Family.

I am so sorry for your loss. It is so hard when they must leave. I am glad you were there with her (DW too). Godspeed Jasmine. Gone from your life but never from your heart.
{{{{{HUGS}}}}}
She had one last full good day, Monday. Ate well, high energy play with the young Aussies, waggy, jumped up on the bed at night and gave her normal contented sigh [emoji5]
Aw Mark, I'm so sorry...am just glad that she was home with those who loved her most in her last moments...(((hugs))) to you all.
Oh Mark I'm so sorry she passed. It hurts so much when we lose our fur babies. I'm glad she was in her own home when she died. So comforting for you two and her.
Thanks everyone!
Fortunately we still have the two younger Aussies, and Sidney. I'm reminding DW that they need lots of love - Jasmine had been Sydney's companion since he joined us in August 2010, and was a playmate for the youngsters, especially Bear.

You're so right. The rest of the pack not only feel the voud left by Jasmine and miss her but also sense your distress. Lots of hugs and kisses help the healing process.
Mark and DW, I’m so very sorry to read of your loss. ((((Big Hugs)))) to you both. It’s so hard to lose a furbaby but I’m glad Jasmine was home surrounded by love from all.
It can happen so fast. Geordi's father was a robust, healthy, silly 7 yr old boy. I got a text at 6:20 am Monday morning - his breeder got home from work (night shift as an ER nurse) to find him dead in his crate. She took him to U of FL for necropsy. Hemangiosarcoma, he had a tumor on his heart that burst. A shock to us all.
Your family is close in my heart Mark.
