Hello All.
Again.
Two posts in one day.
In case I forget what I want to tell you.
Thought I would share a photo of my Stepdad.
He wasn’t aware I was taking it.
Would probably kill me.
He is so incredible.
Can still shower himself.
Dress himself.
Make a boiled egg.
Put on odd socks.
But, they ARE the same colour.
This is the dog that the owner is threatening to have put down.
He looks so friendly.
I am hoping that my next door neighbour’s brother will take the dog.
Please hold thumbs.
Or toes.
Just send positive vibes.
I so wish I could take the dog.
But, M would have a melt down.
And, I think it would need lots of exercise.
It would be too much for me.
I do know my limitations.
Old age sucks.
No lab results yet.
Regarding the old man.
He tells me that the big C will probably take him one day.
I think old age might just do that first.
But, I didn’t say it.
Sometimes I can restrain myself.

Your step-dad sure doesn’t LOOK his age, either! Hopefully, the “big C” decided to take a pass this time. (And fingers crossed for the neighbor-dog.)

Am waiting to hear as we speak. My nerves are shattered.

Good picture and that’s great at how he can still be pretty independent! I am a caregiver for my job, and take care of many who can no longer do that. Yes, old age can suck at times!
Fingers crossed for the dog!! Love dogs!

Me too. Can’t bear the thought of a lovely dog being put down. Out of spite!!!

Die foto van Stepdad is so mooi – dit lyk soos ‘n skildery van die vrede van oudword.

Why would anyone put down such a friendly dog. Here in Oz you’re not allowed to do it. The vet will confiscate the dog and rehome it

I got a letter from the owner.
Said he was angry when he said he was going to put it down.
Hopefully, a friend along the road will be fetching the dog soon and try to rehome it.

Your stepdad doesn’t look like he’s 99. I hope I look like that when/if I get to 99! Well, not exactly, I’d rather be an old woman than an old man. Now, I’m not making any sense at all but I’m sure you know what I mean!? It’s great that your stepdad is so independent at that age too. I was trying to work out what the scene through the window is. It looks like clouds. Is he high up – a flat perhaps? You’ve no doubt mentioned what sort of home he lives in – I’ve got a brain like a goldfish at the moment, so please forgive if necessary. The dog looks adorable. I do hope he doesn’t get put down. What a waste of a dog’s life. Hopefully, someone will offer him/her a good home soon. I’m crossing my fingers and sending positive vibes your way (and the dog’s way too). I couldn’t either cross my toes or hold them even if I tried 😁! Ellie xxx 💟

Hi Ellie.
They live in a house.
He is fantastic for his age.
