Lets hope bad things don't come in threes...

Yesterday at 5am I woke up to a stomach ache and proceeded to vomit for the rest of the day.  It was incredibly unpleasant, especially the hour and a half that I went into work to finish up a power point so I could mail it to a client (who has trial coming up this week).

Today I woke up to my cat Finder drooling and having trouble breathing.  Thankfully we live a block from a animal hospital so I ran him over there.  Unfortunately the vet thinks he has congestive heart failure, which means he would have at most 6 months to live.  There is fluid in his lungs and they have him on oxygen and heavily sedated.  Also, they required a $400 emergency deposit.  Thankfully my dad was kind enough to front the money, and even fronted the extra money so they can keep Finder overnight to observe him.  If he doesn't get better though, it probably means we'll have to euthanize him.  Finder isn't even 2 years old.  I was doing pretty well with the news, but when we went to go see him I just lost it.  I'm not the type to knit sweaters for my pets, or have painting of them or anything like that, but I do love him.  This is a very bad day indeed.

I just hope nothing else bad happens tomorrow.
