Another lovely day ... had to leave early for a meeting so husband in charge of running, feeding and medicating ... he called around 930 to report all was fine ... when I finally got back home (this seemed like a really long day) it was cloudy and threatening rain, all dogs outside, greeted me, I changed clothes and we had a good evening run ... did the circuit in back, mowing as I went, Ginger at my side, stopped and watched neighbor feed her horses, came back around through te wild plum trees, smeling teir sweet scent ... ad up front to cavort in the vetch (Snoopy rolling in the new mown grass and getting all green) no Mattie tonight, shucks ... return to trailer and husband already has food and is heading to kennels as its starting to sprinkle rain, feed and kennel, bring Ginger inside, give her evening meds and snack, start typing update ...stop and fix sandwiches, give Ginger and the Damcat some cheese, sit back at computer ... Ginger comes over shaking like a leaf, all over, a quiver running through her ... I try to calm her, rub her, brush her, give her Rescue Remedy, let her outside where she drinks a LOT of water, walks around but does not turn on the motion lights ... comes back inside, still quivering but not as badly, then lays down in her bed.... she's laying there quietly now ... I am praying for St. Francis to help her ... this has been a good day for Ginger, happy, lively, cheerful, loving ... please join in my prayers that whatever is causing this quivering eases off tonight .... we are going to the vet tomorrow for bloodwork ... Ginger has gotten up again, she lay by the door for awhile then joined us to lick our supper plates ... she is not quivering now ... we went out on the porch and sat for awhile, it's not raining now, a warm soft breeze is gently ruffling her beautiful red coat ... came back in, Ginger ad the Damcat had some liver water (which she is enjoying immensely) ...thank you for your prayers and support, my sweet red girl and I really need your help tonight.The greatest gift throughout this journey has been my Ginger's indomitable spirit, her joy in life, and she has been in no pain or misery ... please pray that this continues until the end.
