Poor Duncan!

This week has been a hard one for us. Duncan, our dog, had a major seizure this last Tuesday and so he had to spend two days in the pet hospital having tests ran. Ronda was luckily there when he had it and was able to rush him to the pet hospital for testing and treatment. We really were afraid we would lose him and that would not be good. He is our life for now and the only baby we have to love and spoil. Due to us having to be with him 24 hours a day for the next week or two, Bob will not be going with Ronda to Cedar City and St. George for her training. He will stay home to care for Duncan and Ronda will only stay down there for as long as necessary to attend her training. We hope all goes well for the three of us, Ronda is really having a hard time leaving. The good news is that he doesn't have liver failure, cancer, or disease like they thought he might. The bad news is that they don't quite know what it is yet, other than a few different infections. We still have to watch him very closely, stay with him 24 hours a day, and coax him to take his 4 medications. That is the real trial right now! They will run some more tests on him in two weeks to see if things are clearing up and settling down.
