"11 P.M. Evening of 3.28.22
P.Nut is barely able to walk, yet she pulls herself up the little stairs to sleep on the bed - near me, Sparky is here too. I never thought He'd be the last man standing,
2:45 PM. 3.29.22
I've made calls to Lap of Love - at home euthanizing. Dr. Roark can come Saturday (she now lives in austin) but P.Nut may need help before then. Sparky remains close to P.Nut + to me. We both hold vigil for P.Nut - on the big bed." - Rights
