stormdogI just got over the worst headache of my life. Four days of debilitating pain, and another couple days of lingering effects To the headache, my body added neck pain, nausea, and chest spasms, any one of which would probably have kept me home.
I called the animal shelter and arranged to have someone get Rufus because I simply couldn't take care of him and get him his meds on time. I didn't know how long I was awake and asleep, and even when I was up I couldn't manage to get his meds to him. Because of that, he was seizing more often. When the cat pestered me for meals, rather than dividing cans into thirds for him, I just popped the top and dumped it in his bowl. He ate well these past days. Rufus too, when he was here; I just scooped up a bunch of kibble and dropped it in his bowl a couple times a day.
Writing about Rufus hurts. I miss him. He really needed to have someone else take care of him regardless, but not having him at home hurts.
Anyway, today, an echo of that head and neck pain remain, but I"m feeling human and I'm back at work. I overslept my alarm by two hours because I'm still not sleeping well, but I got up and caught the train and here I am.
