If you know my Mom at all, you probably know of her dogs, Georgie and Bonnie.  Well, after a stroke and many other ailments Mom finally made the decision to put Georgie down tonight.  Her eye had gotten infected, dispite everything that my Mom and the vet could do and it was swollen.  They said the only thing would be to take the eye but they didn’t think that George would survive the surgery.  They were concerned that there was something behind the eye that was causing it  to swell and that too would have been tricky to investigate with a 16 yr old dog.  As I said she survived a stroke several years ago and never really lost her step, she just looked like she was a little drunk while doing it.  It never seemed to phase her very much.

I will miss her.  Stupid dog.
