Mom's Diary

On the coach

Aug. 26 I received an e-mail from one of my friends, and found out that her dog, Lynn,
died on June 13 from the liver cancer so soon.  If I remember correctly, she
was the same age as Pie.  I was shocked by the news.  When we talked on the
phone in February, my friend told me Lynn only had some problems with one of
her hind legs.  Since it happened all at once, she and her husband have been
depressed for quite a long time, she even could not give me a call.  Now they
are getting better and they thank Lynn everyday.  I hope they get out of this
sad situation somehow and become an owner of a new partner.

Aug. 27 As usual, I went to the vet to get some canned food for Pie.  While I was waiting,
I noticed a poster described dogs' heart disease.  I talked to the vet on it.  I was
worrying since he has noticed noise from Pie's heart at the check up for filarial
disease in May.  The vet told me Pie might start to take medicine if he would be
coughing after going for a walk or getting excited.  He also told me that Pie's
heart sounded his age.  He turned to 9 years old in July,  If he is a human being,
he is now 58 years old.  I was moved to tears when I noticed the fact that someday
we should say good-by with each other.  Now he is sleeping at my feet; someday
I cannot see this peaceful face.
