Memphis Went to the Vet Today... (We Need Your Positive Vibes)

It's too early to be awake. Memphis is like, I'm not really awake. I'm on my meds already. Good wonderful beautiful. Oh, watch out wobbles. Good wonderful beautiful morning Pawdience. We got up at six o'clock. I gave Memphis the medicine they wanted me to give her so that hopefully they don't even have to put her in twilight and she's very woobly. She's very woobly. I'm trying to get her to go to the bathroom and she won't. We got about five minutes before we have to leave. I'm hoping to get her to go to the bathroom before we go. If not, I'm gonna walk around at the vet's office and see if I can get her to go there but she's a little woobly. Woobly woobly. So hopefully they won't actually have to sedate her because look she's pretty still right there and that's... I mean she's sedated because she's on the trazodone but we're hoping they don't have to do like twilight or anything. That's our hope. All positive vibes today. Positive vibes. Positive vibes. Positive vibes from Memphis Yeah Memphis doesn't like drugs. Trazodone makes her pretty goofy. Even the small doses. I don't like putting her on it either but if this makes it so she doesn't have to go under full twilight even, I can handle it for one day. By the way, it's beautiful today. Jamie I think is going biking with Eric today to keep himself distracted. Eric asked him if he wanted to go and I said that's an amazing idea. You guys should go. So I think Eric, Greg and Jamie are going biking later today on real bikes not even e-bikes. I don't know if they're going to take a camera. I told Jamie he didn't have to. We'll figure all that out later. You're going to sit down aren't you? All right let me go get the car ready for you then. You're very woobly but what's funny is you were so excited in the car because you know where you are. It cracks me up that this is still one of your favorite places is the vet's office. Okay step. Oh good job. Good job. Come on. You already did your thing. She's like yeah but I can do more. All right come on. Let's go inside. Those are pretty flowers. Oh I'm sure there's female there too. Come on. All right Memphis, you ready to do this? She's like I'm just ready for a nap. I'm sure you'll get a good nap in while you're here. Just from the treasurer. That's so crazy. I barely ever give any of them any of that stuff. She's like oh yeah a nap sounds good right now. Okay they're gonna come get you. I don't want to leave you but I have to. Remember when I used to be able to stay here when they used to do all this stuff and I just stayed with you and watched all this stuff? That was way cooler. Hey sleepy girl. Look at you. We made it home. She doesn't want to eat her food. They did not have to give her any more sedation medicine which is amazing. So she's just on the trezorone which should wear off in a couple hours but it's just going to kind of make her chill like this. Kira's very concerned about her sister. We're all kind of concerned about you. We didn't get the best news but we also didn't. Thanks loud truck. We also didn't get the worst news if that makes sense. Emphasis 13. We know that she's had issues with her liver for a really long time. So we did find out today. I went ahead to protect her from these crazy dogs behind me. Okay dad came out here to wrangle this the psycho puppy. So basically they did the x-ray. They did the ultrasound. The good news is nothing is like all over the place. That's good news. They don't see anything in her chest or anything like that. The not so great news is they did find a tumor on her liver. Other good news. So as I was saying while the other dogs are still going crazy. Um they did find a tumor. The other it's not great news of course. Good news is it does kind of give us answers of why her liver levels have been so crazy. Other good news he was able to do a needle biopsy today and he didn't even have to sedate her more than this. I mean look at her. She's so still. So they petted her and she had a little needle biopsy done and they're gonna send that out but they said that'll take like a week to get back and then that will tell us what type of tumor it is. There's a few different types that we're hoping it is and I know it sounds weird to be hoping that a tumor is a certain type of tumor. I'm never going to remember the name of them but they're liver tumors that basically form in one lobe of the liver instead of like all over in a bunch of little tiny tumors. We believe this is one big tumor. Not by big. I mean it's big but it's not huge. We're hoping that because it's the one big that they can see she's probably gonna need a CT scan and all that stuff as well. That if it's one of the two types that we're hoping it could be which again seems weird to be hoping it's a certain type of tumor but we already know she has a tumor so that's been confirmed. She would be able to have surgery and they would be able to remove it and most of the time it from what Dr. Ryan said they live normal lives. She wouldn't even need chemo and radiation if it ends up being the cancer kind. There's a cancerous one and a benign one so either one still not great but we we might have options which is good. That's good news. Don't freak out yet. Let me do the freaking out. You guys don't forget just let me just let me do the freaking out. Jamie and I can do all of that for you. For real though I will have Dan put the names of the tumors over here somewhere. Don't let me forget to send that to you Dan. Just so you guys can kind of have an idea of what they are and if any of you have been through that before and your dogs have had surgery leave a comment. Tell us your stories. What did you do? She is 13. The other thing I want to tell you guys is age is not a disease so doing surgery on an older dog is not necessarily something you just don't do because they're older. Now with Memphis we didn't want to do surgery because of her liver levels but now that we know that this could all be happening or is all happening because of a tumor in her liver surgery might be an option. You want to hang out out here all day? Do you want to go back inside? Dr. Ryan did tell me that he would not be able to do it. That we would have to go down to the Flint Surgical Center and for those of you that have been around for a very long time. Something is yelling. Some bird is yelling. For those of you that have been around for a very long time you may remember that we actually went down there for Shelby to have surgery. Why does it sound like there's something? We might have to go figure out what that screamy bird is doing. Oh don't stop them. Okay so anyway that's the news. Memphis is all sleepy, extra sleepy. I should probably put her inside so she doesn't have to nap out here although it is 63 degrees outside and beautiful and she is in the shade so that's the news. That's what we know. Other news you guys have been asking and begging and wanting the Protect the Memphis merch. We have Protect the Memphis merch. There's a QR code here you can scan it will take you to our store. It is adorable and we love it and it was done by somebody who's done quite a few of our designs. She's so tired. I gotta get her inside. So yes we do have Protect the Memphis merch. I know you guys have been begging for it. I was gonna use the money from the Protect the Memphis merch to buy her a PEMF mat but now it will all be going into the emergency vet fund for the dogs because this if we do end up having to have surgery and a CT scan these things I know are very expensive. The other thing is we do still have the GoFundMe for Memphis which I will link down below as well. Please do not feel like you have to donate and then to any of you that are members of it or any of you that want to become members all of the membership monies that come in to this channel go directly to the dogs vet fund as well. So that's another way you can help offset the cost. Again please don't feel like you have to do any of that. Memphis will be taken care of regardless. It's bad news but also good news. I'm staying positive and I have high hopes. I have to go figure out what is screaming over here. I can't find him but he's a squirrel or a chipmunk in this tree. He's in there. I think he's all right. He's just loud and he's mad that the peanuts are empty. What do you think? You look so sleepy. Would you like a treat? I know it's got medicines in it. You're not supposed to know that part. It's actually just got one of her vitamins in it that she doesn't like to take without the pill pocket. I just gave her one and she's like I don't know mom maybe I don't want that. Yeah I know you didn't even want your breakfast which that's okay. Yeah you can eat it when you're ready. Oh you ate that one? Good job. She's also a little woogly from the trasidones. Here you're supposed to eat this. We're supposed to drop it on the ground. Yeah eat that one. It's delicious. It's only got a little dirt on it now. You're gonna spit that one out. She found the the zinc tablet in it and she's like no thank you no thank you. You don't have to eat it. Come on let's go inside. Weevils. She's like uh weevil weevil wobbles but don't fall down. Yeah I'll carry you up the steps or dad will. We'll get you inside and you can nap in there. Look Jamie cleaned the door and there's the bird nest. That is so crazy. Can we like put it in epoxy or something? They did use dog hair. There's a lot of dog hair in there. That's not just baby bird feathers. There's dog hair in there. And they flew the coop. They're gone. They're over there somewhere. Oh that's cool. Are you gonna take it out of there? Oh yeah. Are we gonna spray the wreath down or should we toss it? It looks like there's a nice little poop cone on the nest. Yeah we might be safe to just remove that and clean it and be good. I'll let you make that decision. It's mostly plastic. Yeah so I'll let you make that decision. If you think it's saveable, save it. If not, oh I can always get another one. Oh that was a fun, that was a fun little section of our lives. A bird's nest. Did you, did you put dog hair in the feeder for them? That's very nice. Makes their nests nice and warm. All right going back in here to check on the girl. Checking in on the girlies. I have girlie number one here. Hi. How you doing? Eleanor's over here. And Memphis, you're awake. I see you. Hi. I went into the office to get some stuff done and she laid down right here and this is where she stayed. It's nice and cool right here in the dark. Probably feels pretty good too, huh? Yeah you ready to eat yet? She ate like three bites of her breakfast and that was it. Which is pretty normal when she's on medication. She doesn't like to eat. They said she was fine to do whatever today because she's just on the trazodone but Memphis does not like drugs. You don't like drugs do you? No. So yeah. We're gonna hope these biopsy results come back really fast so we can move on to the next steps, right? I'm pooping you. Oh you're awake enough to pull away from that. Yeah you might be ready for lunch. Oh she's definitely starting to... Hi Eleanor. She's definitely starting to feel better because she wanted her breakfast. That's her breakfast. So I'm gonna try to hold her off for a couple hours to eat her lunch a little bit late. She ate a couple bites of this when she got home but she didn't want it. So the trazodone doesn't last in their system for super long. Hi Eleanor. I know she's eating and you think you're supposed to be eating but you're not. It's 1 30. I know we'll feed you again in a little bit. I'll let Memphis get some food in her belly. But she actually wanted it so that was a good thing. Are you a little more awake now? Oh look at you. You're like okay my stuff wore it off and oh I even get kisses. Oh thank you. Thank you. Jamie just took off to go for a bike ride. Like I said I don't know if he's gonna film anything. I told him he didn't have to. I said you just want to go have fun with your friends? Go have fun with your friends. And I am working on listing the protect Memphis at all cost merch. That's what I'm gonna do and make chicken wings. I'm gonna make chicken wing, chicken wing, hot dog and bologna, chicken and macaroni. Stupid TikTok. You girls are shedding so bad because you got wet. Oh you're feeling good now huh? They're like what are we doing? Are we doing something fun? I did just get permission from the vet. I asked if oh excuse you Piggly Wiggly. I asked if we could still take Memphis on a short camping trip not far from home and he said absolutely. You should still do all the same things that you always do with her. So I think we might go camping next week with my mom and dad. I think. Holy Grinch toes. Oh my goodness. Let me see. Let me see them Grinch toes. Oh my goodness you're a mess. You're a mess. We're gonna take care of them Grinch toes and give you a spa day. That's what we're gonna do and make chicken wings and get the merch listed and feed you lunch. Are you hungry? I know you are. All right I will feed you yunch and start making some chicken wings. Hey you made it. Are your legs a little jello-y too? Hey look mountain bikes. Well Eric. Oh hey look there is an Eric. All right and he's like I'm fine. This is great. There's another trail there. I don't know if we're gonna go that way right now though. That looks inviting. Oh do we have somebody actually following? We do. All right. Funny. Yeah. She's definitely feeling much better now that she ate. It is pretty outside. Jamie just got back. I don't know if we're walking dogs or not. I guess it really depends on how Memphis feels. Oh let's check the grasses. Let's go see what that looks like. It looks like... Oh it's hard to tell. There's definitely clovers. Oh I do see some baby grasses in the clovers. And then lots of those things. So there's some baby grasses. Oh there's more over there. There's some. There's a lot of grass growing over here. There is. You can see it like coming up in big. No for real. Come look closer. Closer. Closer. Look at how much grass is actually growing. You can you can see it. There's big clumps of it all over the place. It's working. Look at over there. You can see it. You can see all the little hairs. And look at it that way. All little hairs. It's working hun. It's working. Oh Jamie look. The apple tree things opened. They were not open. I was gonna say they were not open yesterday. We were just looking at these. Well they're all supposed to kind of get to a certain temperature. Where's she at? Hi Memphis. She's like I'm feeling better. Them drugs suck. They do suck don't they? What? Yeah I know. Oh yeah. She's like yeah I don't like those. Oh so the flowers are opening. Yeah. Nice. What are you eating? The really really tall grass. Eleanor quit eating salad. She's like okay. Yeah it's growing. It's growing tall back here. Where you going Memphis? I don't know. Checking things out. Let's see a happy face. I saw Memphis had a happy face. Hi happy girl. Hi happy girl. Hi happy girl. How you doing? You feeling better? The drugs have wore off. You feel a little bit better huh? She's like mom I could totally go for a W-A-R-K. I think you could, but I don't want to overdo it today. You did a lot today. You had a very very busy day. And I don't even know if I got the rest of the stuff. I didn't even look at it yet her other blood levels and her blood work and stuff. I didn't even look at it yet. Oh Memphis. Memphis.

I'm gonna be able to catch him on video. Check him out. I don't know if that's our yard bunny that made it out of the yard but that is such a tiny bunny. He's so little. Kira smelled him before she saw him. Oops wrong button and I don't know if Eleanor sees him. Kira sees him. You see that bunny? You see that little bunny out there? Memphis there's a bunny out here.
