Mr. Buddha just got home after getting an echocardiogram.. He has "a fairly significant micro-regurgitation" in his heart, a.k.a., "low grade heart failure".
Yesterday, I took my mom and dad to the doctor so that my dad could get his pacemaker checked. The battery is starting to have less energy and after my dad's next 6-month pacemaker check, they will have to start monitoring it more often.
Most likely, my dad doesn't know anything about his pacemaker check-up today. I'm not sure that he knew the details yesterday.
Buddha came home all happy, instantly wanting his dog cookie and a trip out into the backyard. No worries.
My dad and Buddha are both fine - except for their bodies.
So why am I a blubbering mess???
If you want to find me, just look for me in my cave.
Knock, Knock . . . May I come in and sit a moment with you? There is beauty in blubbering. It means there is a heart that is breaking for something, aching for something . . . or both . . . and more. I'll just sit here and be quiet with you.
ReplyDeleteYes... what Goodnightgram said. She said waht I would say better than I can say it.
ReplyDeleteMy blessings to you dad and mum; a pat on the head of Alex's favorite woofie doggie, and much love to you, my dearest friend.

Oh, G.G.,
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome to come sit in silence with me. I'm sure your energy would be a comfort. Thank you!
Thank you, Nick! I gave Buddha a pat on the head from Alex. Buddha has been kissed and patted and snuggled with ever since he got home from the vet's. I love him so much it hurts.
ReplyDeleteFoam, Did the immensity of it all hit you in waves every once in awhile?
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind thoughts.
xoxo back at ya!
Some beautiful comments for you above Carol and I am not sure what I can add to their very articulate sentiments.
ReplyDeleteOn 10 September you posted a comment from your Dad "I'm doing much better, now that you are here!" That's a feeling that your Mum, Dad, Buddha and we who visit your blog have and we want you to feel better that we are here.
Hang on in there and keep on doing what you are doing.
We are always here to send you (and Mr CfP) kind thoughts and hugs.
A pat for Buddha from the strange lady who visited last year and admired his tail chasing abilities!
Awwww. Sending love your way, and theirs, too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your sweet words and your support, Dancing.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you got to witness the famous Buddha Crab.
Ah... wonderful memories!
Thanks, Otowi! I feel it!
