March Madness

Anthony was so excited that's it finally March and we can watch basketball 24/7 however Duncan Punkin started the madness.  I noticed that he wasn't feeling well and Anthony had noted it several weeks before and didn't want to tell me because I would be scared and possibly over react.  Trust me we had a really serious conversation about what we discuss and how we react to that knowledge.  So, that's clear now we focused back on Duncan.  The next morning I took him to the doctor and she advised that he had stones and they needed to be removed with surgery.  Of course I lost it started to cry, pray, cry and called my mom.  When we got back home I informed Anthony and took care of making the arrangements and preparation for surgery.  The next day we took dropped him off at he doctors at 8am and they told me they would start surgery at noon.  We ended up getting breakfast and coming back home when the doctor called at 12:15.  My heart stopped the doctor called to advise us that Duncan needed to be taken to the emergency medical surgeon as one of the stones wouldn't allow a catheter.  I broke down!  But Anthony was my rock and took care of everything.  We called the surgeon to get his next appointment and made arrangements to met him.  I was so nervous about what he was going to say but the news was good and he made us feel very comfortable.  So we had to leave my baby.  I ended up returning to work but Anthony called me to tell me he doctors said it went well and that they needed to watch him overnight.  The next day I was too thrilled to see him.  Believe me or not but Anthony shredded a few tears as well.  I think we were both happy it was over and the healing was able to begin.  In three weeks he will get his stitches removed and all will be well.  Thank you to all our family, friends, colleagues, Vets, and staff that helps us through this.  But to the one and only God that keep me as faithful and Anthony strong we are here because of your love for us and we thank you.
