Rei Girl Lives On

We started today with a quick breakfast and then we were off to the Market. This was our LAST trip to the Market for the summer. This time however we had one unexpected passenger, Rei. She rode along so we could take her to the vet. The vet was a few blocks down from Garcia’s (the place we hang out at the market). We asked a translator to go with us, which was a great idea…trust me! When we got there the vet said it was going to be $100.00 because it was an emergency, he opened up just for us, we told him we could not afford that. He went down to $25.00 plus medicine…we said deal! He is normally $15.00 a visit. Rei has a bladder infection more than likely and she got a shot today and medicine to take every morning and night. He also said that he thinks she was born with some sorta condition that makes sand like substances form in her bladder, so he said we need to buy fancy food for her to change the ph level in her diet. It was sad to see her sick, but I am so thankful for that doctor. The rest of day was great and it was fun and sad saying all day… “this is the last time we will…” Thanks for your prayers, keep praying please….I have to go because the room I am typing in has no AC and Will is concerned for me. It is like 90 degrees plus…it is like Hell…well it is what I picture it being.
