From: Dillon Pyron on 11 Jun 2010 14:01 Toby went to the Bridge Monday afternoon. Dr. Berger talked about some of the things we could do, change his diet, go to daily fluids, or even more often, up his meds. Then his bloodwork came back. His BUN and creatinine were both 10x normal. She said we could put him in the hosptial (there's a 24 hour hosptial in Austin, now) for three or four days of continuous IV fluids, but that might only give him 2 weeks. Or we could go home and come back in the morning. We just choose to take care of him then. Flat out KNOWING would be worse for us and he really didn't seem to be very happy by then. We will miss him greatly. Ruby is doing okay, but she seems to have become a little mopey (moopey? ). We will have his ashes back next week some time. Thank you all. -- - dillon I am not invalid Warick: "Who brings a gun to a knife fight?" Gil: "The winner?"
From: Peppermint Patty on 11 Jun 2010 16:30 So sorry Dillon. Ruby may be mopey for a while. My little Gina wouldn't eat anymore and this went on for months. Don't be surprised if Ruby gets very quiet and has a slight personality change. Doggies get depressed too. Anyway, the Rainbow Bridge is sad yet very comforting if you imagine that that's how it really is. It's so hard to let go that we sometimes keep our friends with us for longer than we should but it sounds like Toby knew it was time. You did the best thing for him and he knew that he was loved.

I am sure you and Carol will have happy happy memories of Toby. Ruby will be fine. A little puppy might be nice... I suggest you name it Kevin. I like that name.You know from Up. Lisa
