Terribly late update!
Dad had a battery or tests ran and the cancer has not spread and he will have an operation in January to remove the cancer from the prostate.
All in all he should be just fine.
Donald is over tonight and we were looking back at LJ posts and i came across his from when Luther passed almost 2 years ago. I had made a comment about how i won't hear Luther's snores anymore or be greated when I come home.
A few weeks after Luther died, we got Lola. I had much guilt about how quickly we got another dog, but i realized that this was our first dog together (as Luther was my dog since childhood) and that I needed a little bundle to nurture and ease the pain of losing my friend.
Now, Luther always greeted me, up until the last few weeks. Mind you, I have had to wake him up off the couch, but he then said hello!!
The amount of greeting I started to get from Lola was pretty high octane! It made me feel needed, let me tell you!
A year after we got Lola, we decided she needed a pal. In June we got Teddy, another mini schnauzer.
Again, the amount of greeting I get when I get home has deafened anyone who happens to be on the phone with me when I come in the door! Barking and "schnauzer screaming" commences while I am still in the garage! I am sure passer-bys wonder what in the world is happening inside!
As for the snoring... Luther's sweet snores came from the floor on his doggie bed. Lola and Teddy both sleep in the bed with us (thank goodness for the King size!) and the snoring is a little more up close!
So once again, I get my greetings and snores.
But now and then, I still open my nightstand, touch Luther's collar, and think of him.
A very, very good dog.
