And So It Begins
One year ago today was the beginning of the end. This was the date that I took Reggie to the vet out of concern for his health since he had not been eating much for several days before.
Tomorrow will be the 6th which last year fell on a Saturday. I woke up to find that Reggie did not have control of his hind legs so I rushed him to the emergency vet. For six more days, he stayed overnight until he was stable enough to be sent home. I was fortunate to be able to take that Friday off from work so I got a long weekend with him.
At 3:55 AM in the morning on Tuesday, January 16th, Reggie died. What horrible way to spend the beginning days of 2007.
While these same days of 2008 will be painful reminders of last year, I hope that they will also bring a positive outlook for the coming year. We all have our crosses to bear, this is one of mine.
