My mom’s orchid (in my “care”) is blooming She was comfortable and distracted by all of the activity around her: dogs, birds, cars, neighbors. Kaweah takes the opportunity to look around (it’s a new and exciting vantage for her) and almost has an air of “Bring me thither!” We set her down on the deck in the sun with a good view of the neighborhood. The first time we did that a few weeks ago, she was all, “Whoa… what the what?” But now she’s used to it and she rather likes it. She can’t really feel pain when her legs are splayed or twisted in odd directions, we just don’t want her to cut off circulation and do further damage to them.īecause it can be quite an ordeal for her to get out of bed and move elsewhere (like out of the sun or into the office), sometimes we pick the bed up with Kaweah in it. She always greets us with an expression, “Oh hey, how’s it going?” We rearrange her legs into a comfortable position several times a day (and night). Her legs are getting to the point where sometimes she doesn’t have the strength to crawl into her bed on her own and we’ll find her with the front half in the bed and the back half hanging out on the rug or the back legs in some tangled spaghetti-like mess. Kaweah spends a good deal of time in her doggy bed because she gets so tuckered out from standing or walking these days. I called to Jeremy in the office and asked him to help me carry Kaweah out to the deck. The mercury read 45☏ on our deck with nary a cloud in the sky, the wind abating for a day. It was so hot while I was shooting Wednesday afternoon, that I opened the deck door to let some cool air in.
