Sad news today, Mac's dying.


Mac has had a bad cough for the last 2 weeks. The vet's in Tor C said, "My lab did that". They took some blood, charged $250.00 and sent Dave home. (I knew I should have gone along). So after hearing him cough for sooo long I said "Let's go to Cruces
to a real vet". So we did today to find out, after an xray, that his lungs are floating in fluid and the reason for the cough is that he can't get a real breath. The vet said it "won't be long and it's a bad way to go". So we will enjoy what time we have left, keep an eye on him, then send him up to Jaz.
