At about 11:30 last night, I had to take my borzoi, Norma, to the vet because she wasn't acting like herself and her stomach felt really tight and hard. My parents and I were afraid she had bloat, a condition where the stomach flips over or gets twisted inside the body, and we took her to the Vet in the next town over.
The veterinarian said that he didn't think it was bloat either but rather an obstruction in the farther regions of the digestive track within the intestines. Mom filled out the paper work and paid for the ex-ray while I petted Norma in the back room. She drove me back home since I had school in the morning and we got back 1AM. She left to go back to the vet while I got ready for bed.
I had to keep mom's dogs in my room last night and since they wouldn't stop whining I was up until three AM trying to shut them up so I could sleep. There was no word from the veterinarian in the morning so I went to school as usual.
When I got home just a small while ago, I found out that they had to cut her open because Norma did, indeed, have bloat. The stomach was already tinged black in some areas and her spleen was filled with blood from her stomach pressing against it.
She had only a small chance to live, and if we had gone through with the operations needed to fix it, it would have been a long and lengthy recovery with an even smaller chance of survival. We already have had two Great Danes die from this and neither of them lived through the operation, so mom told them to put her to sleep.
Norma was "my" dog and my favorite out of all the ones we have. I'm used to my favorites dying before their time as they always do around me, but I'm still trying really hard not to cry. I could really use a pick me up right now.

Moved Accounts
I am moving on to my fourth and hopefully final account on Deviantart. However, I wont be active until at least a week into summer vacation, which is about a month away, so this journal will also count as my hiatus.
A lot of pure crap has been happening in my life over the course of the year and I've decided I need to do something new, even if it's just switching accounts. It just feels like I'm finally in control of something and that I can start at least one thing over from the very beginning, even if I barely changed the name.
If anyone wants to know my new account, just note me or comment here and I'll note you the new one.
Thinkin' of makin' a new account
I feel like this account has too many of my troubles associated with it, so I'm considering making a new one and moving a few pieces over to it as well as uploading some new ones. This would be my fourth account change, but.... I don't know. I feel the need for some change.
Alas, again, I have not been able to sleep. I suppose I'll stay up a few more hours.
I've returned, friends.
As a few of you know, I've been having family issues along with a strengthening depression. I've recently moved back in with my mother and father after we've had much discussion about the moving overseas to Germany argument. My mother will be going there sometime over summer break to visit my sick grandmother and speak with lawyers, and then she will return once she's done there. Later this year, I will be visiting in October for a week along with my mother.
Once finals are done with at the end of January, I will be back on DeviantART and actually active for once if more things don't obstruct my plans. I have a lot of ideas for this year tha
Been thinking lately:
If you, whoever you may be, knew of my religious beliefs, music selection, or view on humanity, would your opinion on me change?

Hey, I'm just a random passerby, so I hope this is alright, haha.
Losing a dog is one of the hardest things I think can happen to an individual, but it sounds like you really loved her. I had to put my dog down in February this year, and it's tough, but you've got friends and loved ones who will help you get through it. If you think I can do anything to help, be it a sketch or something, let me know and I'll try my best.
