Just got into work having dropped Lupe off at Dr. Z’s. Signed all the forms for the amputation but not sure if it is still an option. Dr. Z and I spoke yesterday and she felt that all of Lupe’s symptoms (not eating, lethargy, upset tummy, etc.) are related to the pain and the meds. So we agreed that I would drop her off as scheduled this morning, Dr. Z would do some blood work and an exam and then call me to discuss our options. Surgery may give her the best chance of being pain free and returning more towards normal, but she may not be able to handle surgery and even if we do it, nothing is guaranteed…but isn’t that the way in life?
I handed over my sweet girl to the surgery tech, kissed her beautiful nose and her cancer leg, gave her a big ear scratch and she was gone. Now to through myself into work until I hear back from Dr. Z…but first, a deep thought from Lupe…

Dear Lupe,
Today is your new beginning. You are not losing anything that you need. You are losing hurt. You are gaining hope.
Love, Dakota
Sending super pawsitive thoughts out to Lupe!!! She’s so cute and looks like such a sweetie.
The waiting can be terrible. Try to keep yourself occupied as much as possible.
