another day with the little one

it's been 3 days since we got timbre. good times and bad times, painful times and silly times all make it worth it i guess. and he either recognises our voices or his name coz he responses pretty well and is soooo obedient. maybe more so just coz he's sick. sick but still damn freaking strong lah.

my poor little boy had already been having diarrhoea since the day we got him. and with the poop was a little tinge of blood. doc said to monitor it. last evening he started pooping just blood. and a whole lot of it. sigh... then almost every other hour we had to bring him downstairs just so he can let go. not pee though, just liquid poop and blood all the way. sigh... gonna bring him in to see the vet and he might have to stay for 24hour observation. no marneeee ahhhhh... (how abt a donation drive?)

anywayz, despite being so sick, he's still pretty smart and strong. we decided to sleep outside with him again coz it's easier for us to wake up and bring him out if he needs to poop. fell asleep right around 1am and 4am we woke up to an empty cushion (he sleeps on a similar cushion beside us) and found him not in the toilet but in the master bed room, on the bed, head on the pillow, sleeping. tamade! smartypants cheated us of our bed!! he decided to be all sweet and innocent and slept between our legs under the blanket until we woke up to find him back in the room again. but this time he didn't look too comfy. he was just at the edge of the bed, shivering.

poor boy puked abt 3 different places around the house. thank god there wasn't any poop!

waiting to go bring him to the doc soon. is this what it feels like to eventually become parents and be worried sick when your kid falls sick?? the man looks like he makes a great pet owner and dad but i'm wondering if i'm cut out for it. haha...

doc says he'll be alright in the immediate future (3-5days) but we're not sure if he can get well in time. we're just doing the best we can to make whatever time he has left comfy and painless. hope he'll hang in though, just wanna see him healthy and jumpy and noisy as he should be.

alrighty. i'm going for breakfast then off to the vet. such a detour to my initial plan for this trip. i just hope i get the job so i dun have to waste time looking for other interviews. time flies!! i'm gonna be bk in abt 2 weeks.

kinda like a glimpse into the future this is... isn't to bad, eh?
