Angel Watch for Beau

Our snowfall from a couple of days ago is doing just what it was predicted to do, melt.  My yard is muddy, wet and the ground is saturated.  I couldn't be happier about it!

On the inside, we've begun what I call "Angel Watch" for our sweet boy Beau. You'll recall that x-rays found masses in his chest just prior to my going to Kentucky. Thankfully he was "okay" while I was gone.  But in the past week Beau has begun slowing down and not eating much. I spoke to his vet because we'd decreased the amount of the steroid prednisone that he's been taking. Dr. D agreed that it would be okay to go back to the original, full daily dose to see if that would make a difference.  It has somewhat, but I don't think it's helping enough.

Given that, we'll do what has been done before and let Beau set the pace in this, the final chapter of his life. And when it's time, we'll do the last kind thing that can be done for Beau, and send him to the Rainbow Bridge. Until that time comes, Beau is in no pain, there is only peace.
