Back on Track day 4

A bit of a change in plans today, due to a minor incident at home last night with our dog Bella.

Today was supposed to be another day of running but it turned into a rest day and now Friday will be my running day.

Here is the story of my dog Bella's incident.  We have 6 cats and now 1 dog Bella, well for the most part she gets along good with the cats.  Last night she was chasing Tequila around the dining room, just playing and having fun.  Tequila run under the dining room table and Bella followed, unknown to her that Canela was sitting on one of the dining room chairs and as Bella came out from under the table past the chair, Canela reached out and swatted at Bella.  So that swat caught Bella in the right eye, at first we thought she would be okay just looked like she got hit in the eye.  Until this morning when she woke up and her eye was almost closed and all gooey.  So we had to take her to the Vet, the first vet didn't like the way it looked but didn't have the proper equipment to do the correct examination so she referred us to an animal hospital in Delaware the specializes in eye issues.  So that is where Bella is right now, waiting for surgery.

They tell us that she got a claw to the eye and it poked a hole in her eyeball and fluid is leaking from her eyeball causing it to collapse a little and will need some stitches to fix the hole.  She still has sight in her eye and she should be okay, but she could get cataracts in the next year.  So we wait for the surgery to be completed so we can take Bella home.  Oh yeah all this at a mere 1500 -2000 dollar price tag.

Needless to say I have been stressing about Bella being hurt and now the bill from the Vet.

Life is just full of surprises for me this year.

I'll be back out there running tomorrow.
