What a Week!

Reese has been our main focus as he's been sick. Really sick. Been to the vet 3-days-in-a-row-refusing-food-and-water sick. The kind of sick that makes me worry like a crazy person and have tissues at all times. But oh, did we learn a lot about the guts of Reese this week!
His bones are beautiful and strong and wonderfully aligned,
His tongue, teeth, ears, blood, lungs, liver, colon, kidneys are all good!
His stomach was not. Hello, foreign object that looked like a weirdly shaped way-too-big kidney bean.
Luckily, with the help of barium, the odd shaped thing passed through to his colon with no surgery needed! whew!
He's home again and eating small portions of food and water with some medication to make sure his insides go back to normal. That being said, not much got done around our house this week - aside from cleaning and washing. The washer/dryer have been going overtime to try and keep up but we still lost a few items that were already pretty worn out and couldn't be cleaned.
I do have to give a shout out to LLBean dog beds! His has taken a LOT this week, including the washer/dryer several times and still come out good as new on the other end! Also, LOVE my Maytags - one of our BEST investments with the house. I would buy them again in a heartbeat!
So here it is... finally Friday! The weekend will be filled with prep for Thanksgiving, guests and catching up on all the bits and pieces I normally get done during the week. You know, fun stuff, like bills, mail, emails, food shopping, errands, dishes and regular laundry!

Thank you for all the well wishes and concerns and hugs we've received this week. Matt and I truly appreciate each and every one of you. If there was ever any doubt, this week has truly reminded us how much Reese is a part of our little family and how much our vet and their office staff rocks our world - he received such wonderful care and we are so thankful to have him home and on the mend.
