A very lovely blogger friend could use some good wishes. She’s always so positive and supportive when she comes to visit my site and all the while this is what she’s going through. She’s an inspiration beyond words. My heart and love go to her in hopes the suffering she’s experiencing eases. Please friends feel free to pay her a visit.
I’m done with the radiation treatments – the last one was the day before Thanksgiving. But I’m not happy with how I’m feeling. I feel frail and off balance. As if I’ve aged 20+ years in the last 3 weeks of treatment. My throat is sore – every time I swallow it feels like I’m trying to swallow razor blades. If you’ve ever had strep throat you know what that feels like. No matter what I eat, it hurts to swallow. Except for ice cream after the first few swallows. And crushed ice. It even hurts to drink water.
I’m still off balance and listing to port. I am very careful about walking, especially in the house as Peanut has to lie down in the middle of the hallway so nobody can get past her without her knowing. I suppose that’s part of her herding instincts to know where everyone…

Wishing you happy holidays, Paulette. Your reviews are outstanding and I couldn’t agree more with the compelling comments.
Thank you so much, Sheri. It means a lot to me coming from you. I hope this holiday time is peaceful for you and your husband and that 2015 is filled with quality days and restful nights. You are an inspiration and I’m so glad to have found you and your wonderful, tell it like it is, important site. Love, Paulette
Paulette – I stopped by to say hello to Ruth and after ‘sleeping on the matter’ I realize I must follow this wonderful woman who’s been through so much.
Tom’s Shih Tzu is 15 and fading fast. I’m doing everything I can think of to keep him comfortable. He has dementia and thankfully sleeps much of the time. He and Tom are so attached and with Tom so ill, how can I take his companion that’s stayed so close. My heart aches and the tears flow. We have a wonderful vet and she has prepared a compound that helps Scooter a great deal. It allows him to rest, have a good appetite and he no longer paces aimlessly. My Miss Priss, same age but still in relatively good health, tries to help Scooter and she’s taken to staying close to Tom also. What a gift every rescue animal has been to us. We’d never consider getting an animal any other place.
Bless you for connecting with you. You two will love each other.
My heart’s heavy reading about Scooter and the impact it must be having on Tom. That’s never easy. I know with your compassionate heart and your vet that the best is being done to help as much as possible. It’s hard to find words when one feels so helpless. The loving response of your Miss Priss takes my breath away. We are of one heart and like mind with regards to rescues.
Holding you, Tom, Scooter, and Miss Priss in my heart.
Have the best of this holiday season, Paulette! You have been an inspiration.
Right back at ya, my sweet friend. You inspire me to get out there and play, albeit I’m slower and closer to the ground. Wishing you, your bipeds, and family the best of this holiday season and 2015. Love, Paulette
