March 28, 2014 Friday Afternoon

Spent last night watching TV and giving Stella our total attention.  She did not throw up again the rest of the day due to her nausea pills I got from the vet in the afternoon.   Went to bed around 8 PM and watched Grey's Anatomy and a couple episodes of Everyone Loves Raymond before going to sleep.

This morning I was up by 6 AM.  Did not sleep well all night thinking about Stella.  Was able to get Stella off the bed without Tony's help.  Stella seems a bit more stable today.  When she shakes her head she does loose her balance and falls to the ground.  Fed the dogs, gave Vito his shot, and Stella her pills.  Spent the morning reading the newspapers and keeping Stella calm on the couch.  She did not throw up her breakfast and kept the pills down.  Went to have lunch with the guys and got back home by 1:15 PM.   Took a nice two hour nap with the dogs.  I do love nap time with the dogs.  Will most likely spend the night watching TV.  No plans this weekend which works out great so we can just keep an eye on Stella.  I still have to walk next to her outside so she doesn't slip on the ice or loose her balance shaking her head.   She is a real strong dog so it is sometimes hard to tell if she is in pain.  Once we get through this weekend we will have to figure out our next steps.  The doctor would like to sedate her and look in her ears.  Of course that comes with a $1000 fee or more we were told.  Will cross that bridge next week.
