Anxious Saturday / myLot

St. Louis, Missouri

May 18, 2019 7:52pm CST

I have accomplished absolutely nothing today. Well, other than being yelled at by my mom - but that’s an everyday thing pretty much. I slept way too late and I’ve had bad anxiety attacks all day. I tried to take a nap but couldn’t fall asleep. I was hoping a friend who was coming into town for a concert would want to meet up for dinner but I guess he got into town too late, since I haven’t heard from him. Tomorrow I’m going to visit y best friend and her family. They have to put one of their dogs to sleep Monday morning and I want to see him one last time. He’s such a goofy thing and I adore him. I’m so sad for them, but he’s all but lost control of his back legs and it is his time to go. For tonight - I shall try to keep my brain from going crazy.

Hope your anxiety attacks let up and enjoy your visit tomorrow. I have a question is the dog healthy and the only reason is his legs. I remember back in Latvia close neighbors had a boxer that lost the feel of back legs and they had a wheeled cart attached to the dog and it even ran and lived a long time afterward.

He has degenerative spinal cord disease. He’s also lost control of his bowels now. He’s been fighting this for about a year and steroids are no longer helping. He’s 8 and a Great Dane, which is elderly for that big a dog.

@Lolaze he will then be better off and happier to be out of his misery. It is sad but the dog cannot keep suffering.

I hope the panick attack disappears so you can sleep well tonight. Is there any pill you can take to relieve that?

I have taken my medicine. It doesn’t seem to be doing much.

Ah, parents. Yes, they can drive you crazy. I know that for a fact. Mine are getting old and they seem to have turned into children again. Wow. Now I am the adult. LOL. Well, I guess that's how it goes. But I go into my apartment upstairs and lock the door. That way I don't have to deal too much with the craziness.

My best friend and I both live with our moms and they are both handfuls. We often joke “Mother’s...can’t live with em, can’t kill em!”

@Lolaze Nice!!! I know what you mean. But look, they were always there for us growing up and I cannot turn my back on my parents. My father just turned 90 and they are like living with children. But that is life.
