I have had this nasty tooth infection for over a week now and am eager for the pulling. In addition to this mind-bending pain (painkillers barely took the edge off), I ended up in the ER last Friday. The pain, infection and dehydration got my heart rate up too high for too long. I am ok now, but wearing a heart monitor for a week to be sure and am taking great care to stay hydrated. At least the antibiotics have taken hold now and the pain has subsided.
Yesterday my precious Pancake, my dear, old lady hamster with the friendly ways, had to be euthanized due to old age issues. I was glad to be able to cut her suffering short. She is buried in the backyard. I am so grateful for the happiness she brought us.
I miss coming here but it has been a week.
Grateful to see all the kindness going ‘round.
RIP, my sweet Pancake.
