Tonight

Winston has been loosing weight. Something we've been working on for sometime. The problem is he is loosing too fast. Last August Dr. Wendy was concerned. (Wendy walked through cancer with us when our sweet Eliot had lymphoma at 2.) Last week Winston went 4 days without touching his food, and so today we went to see Dr. Wendy again.

And again we heard the C word. Winston, at 10 has cancer in his stomach/splene (?) area. It's a blur right now. Wendy said the longest she's seen any dog live with this is three weeks.

So tonight we will begin to tell the kids.

I know God is extravagant in his love, because he made dogs for us to love and share companionship with, and because he brought us Winston at a time when we thought we could never love another dog. And we have for 8 glorious years!
