I hit post too soon on the last one. My dad was admitted to the hospital on Christmas Eve and since then he has been in a rehab clinic, went through 24/7 home care and I had to put him in a nursing home in PA three days ago. My son and I are flying out of Alaska on Monday to see him and take care of things for a week. Very tough. Alzheimers is a terrible disease, not to mention his other ailments at 82 years old.

My "best dog" was diagnosed with bone cancer in her front leg two weeks ago and we took her to Anchorage last Wednesday to have her leg amputated. Brought her home Thursday night, took her to our vet the next day and her red blood cell count had dropped. Did a transfusion, but it didn't help. We had to put her to sleep Saturday morning. She was our best dog for 13 years.

What can you say about your dad and your best friend...

Glad to be back on the forum and thanks for letting me vent.
