We got a new dog. Her name is Maggie and she is Wesley's best friend. She is a black and tan coon hound and soooo sweat. One day she had an enormous growth on her cheek/neck we decided to wait it out and see what happened. So we waited it out through the weekend. That monday we took he to Doc. Lot in morgan. He is our horse vet. The boys came with me and he took one look at her and said she had an abscess. He poked her in the cheek and blook streamed out. Oh did I mention Wes was there watching. Not much bothers him so he wanted to watch. He was doing great. Then Doc pulled out the needle and grabbed some tweezer scissor things and opened up the poke. He then holding the poke open began to sqeeze out the infection. At this point Wes had not passed out but had literally fallen to the floor and was white as a ghost. He kept saying my tummy hurts real bad mom. So I had him go sit on the bench in the waiting room. Where he started to panic a little saying "mom maggie is dead!!" over and over. I calmly reminded him that she is not dead and that she will get better now that the doc got out the infection in her cheek. I had to run out and get my wallet in the car. When I came back in Wes did not look good at all! He said" I am sick mom and I need to go to the bathroom" We RAN to the bathroom where he had all his panic coming out both ends:( He was throwing up everywhere and had horrible diarrhea. I felt just awful. I had the Dr put maggie in the car on the floor in the front while we were in the bathroom for 20 minutes or more. We came out to the car and I told Wes to close his eyes and the Maggie was in the front asleep. He got in and was soooo upset still. He said over and over "Mom I don't want Maggie anymore, lets just give her a way." I said lets just see how she is in the morning and then you can decide. Then about half way home Maggie popped her head up and looked right at Wes. Which in turn he exclaimed
"MOM LOOK ITS MAGGIE, SHE IS ALIVE!!"
He was so excited he could hardly stand it. I had to ask " do you still want to give her away" He was very certain when he said "No can we please keep her?" :)
