Trying to muster up the time...
...to visit Murphy after work today. Murphy only gets to come home on the weekends when Murphy's mom is home during the day to take care of her. During the week, she goes to her other home & I can't visit her there.
I took this photo when I last went to play ball with Murph at the end of December. I get a little crazy when I get excited about things (can you imagine?) and I kind of wore her out. This is Murphy looking at me like I made her run a marathon or ten.(Sigh.) We're still hoping that Murphy will regain her ability to walk and so we can play ball with her again soon. I saw Murphy's mom earlier in the week and the bad news is that there is no change in Murphy's condition, which means that she is still paralyzed. And the hardest part, I hear, is that Murphy WANTS to play ball, but just can't.
Positive thoughts for Murphy's recovery are still happily being accepted.
Need to get caught up on Murphy?

I was watching 3 dogs at the beach today playing and having a blast. I wish Murphy could play with them.

Posted by: Meeta at February 15, 2004 07:24 PMI believe in positive thinking. I see the results of it everyday on one of my animal mailing lists. I'll be sending some Murphy's way.
