Waco Willy

This was written by Dan...

Waco Willy
He was a rooten tooten mighty straight shooten terrier hound. He was a southern boy who came to town. He is runnen with Lu and Bear and chasen the hare. He was my friend my buddy my pal. I will miss you boy.

Kim and I had to have Waco put down Thursday afternoon. Waco was born in Columbia South Carolina on Febuary 15, 2000 and passed away on October 22, 2009. As Jim Harrison would have said. "He was a twenty first century dog". He was a good ol dog. I made him a real nice box out of spruce that was taken off the river property so he will be comfortable in his place of rest. We are taking him out to the river this weekend to barrie him next to Lu. Dan & Kim

WIP Wednesday, 10/21/09

Where has the week gone??? I don't have much to report in quilting. I've been working at Quilt Harbor a few days helping them get ready for this weekends shop hop. This includes piecing a shop sample... but I didn't have my camera with me, so no pic.

I'm still working on the same quilt on my machine... no pix until it's almost done. VBG

Most of my week has been spent taking care of Waco. He's been really ill. We weren't happy with the original vet that we went to. So yesterday we got him into another vet that came highly recommended. It looks light Waco has an enlarged prostate. The hard part now is finding what is causing it. It could be an infection, so he is on antibiotics for the next 6 weeks, along with pain killers and an anti-inflammatory. We are really hoping this works!!! If not then we have to do a ultrasound with a biopsy to see if it's a cyst or cancer. A cyst means surgery. Cancer... I don't even want to talk about it! At least for now he is resting better with relief from the pain meds...

Waco was really matted under his chin, so I cut all that long hair off! Dan hates it when I cut his hair short... I really would like to cut the rest of his long hair off. I may have to wait until Dan isn't home.




I have more done on my puzzle!



Now I need to go quilt before I have to go to my other job!
