Happy Birthday StarWars4J.....

[Starwars4J]

Hello Justin, congrats with your 22nd birthday! I sure hope your day wasn't all that bad? I wish the very best to you in the year to come, and especially lots of LEGO of course! :-D

Darn. I was hoping that your day was soooo good that you didn't have time for us. Sorry to hear that. :'-(

Happy Birthday my friend (crap, I knew your birthday was yesterday, and forgot to post)!

Hope you had a great time (will read the thread right now :-| ).

Edit: (Hope it ended way better)

Thanks all of you! The day didn't get any better but that's fine since today was awesome :-D I don't want to jinx myself, but things aren't as bad as I they were yesterday (my dog got hurt). Thanks again, the kind thoughts definitely helped ;-)

It's Magic, my 16 and a half year old mutt who I've had since second grade :'-( She had an accident I guess on Tuesday. She slipped or something and just couldn't walk and was in a lot of pain. She was brought to the vet right away (I was taking a test when all of this happened), where she was kept for two days. They didn't know if she had a ruptured disk or a clot in her spine...she responded a little to the steroids and came home yesterday with the assumption it was a ruptured disk. She couldn't walk more than three feet without her legs giving out and her falling down :'-( It was just heartbreaking to see her like that, I mean she didn't seem to be in pain but...ya know? Anyway today she's a lot better, I think it's just from being home. She can walk half-way across a room and doesn't fall, she just stops to take breaks. She still can't go down stairs, and most likely never will be able to again, but that's okay I can do that for her :-D We had to make her a firm bed to sleep in to support her back, but the good news is that when she stands today her back legs aren't shaking, and she seems stronger. If she got any worse we would have had to put her down, but now it looks like she may be okay :'-) If she slips and relapses though we definitely have to...she'd become paralyzed and slowly die of waste poisoning (the same surgery we use for paralyzed humans isn't done for dogs...). She may never be just the same...and she may not go much longer, but I'm just happy that she gets to be home, and comfortable. I hope she continues to get better, we have 5 days of steroids left to give her before it becomes ineffective, so cross your fingers...

You need a big hug!

*sends big hug*

*and another*

*and another*

*and another*

*now a bjornkram-swedish for bear hug*

Now for a crying break :'-( :'-( :'-( :'-(

Now Magic needs kisses

*kiss*

good girl! :'-)

*kiss* *kiss*

good girl! :'-)

*kiss* *kiss* *kiss*

good girl! :'-)

:'-( :'-( :'-( I'm sorry to hear. I don't know what I would do...I don't know what else to say. Send her lots of love from me and Jocko and of course Riley too. She want to know if you've given her lots of treats.

Well, I'll move on to happy birthday, and I don't want to jinx you either ;-) but I'm glad things are going better.

*wub*

Sorry to hear about your dog mate, i lost my dog of 15 yrs around 2 yrs ago and it hurt like hell. So i'm really glad to hear that your dog has recovered some what, not the best way to spend the days coming up to your bday so i'm happy to hear that you had a good day.

I'm sorry to hear about your dog SW4J, no wonder your birthday wasn't the happy occasion it's supposed to be. I hope she'll get better soon! (That would probably be the best birthday gift yet)
