Never rains but it pours
Well after getting the 16yo out of hospital on Saturday, and being able to do Dunstable Farmers Market, then the 9yo was really poorly and off school yesterday and today!!!
Now I can work around that as she is good and just either helps or stays out the way, but the killer is we spotted that one of the dogs wasn't looking too great yesterday, he had gunky eyes and seemed to have a bit of a wheeze on his chest so I thought chest infection or pneumonia, either way he needed to be taken to the vets, so off we trudged only to be told by the vet that he didn't have a temperture so he has no infection and that she thinks that he has an autoimmune problem, meaning that we would have to think about putting him down.
We agreed to do a full set of blood tests and come back the next day for the results, but he has gone down hill so much over night that I will be taking him this morning, so I have been unable to do my market in Buckingham this morning and I have a house of very upset people.
Surely we deserve a break soon, I really don't know what else can go wrong.
Write again soon, Vickie
