TT-Lucky


Wasn´t easy for me this time to do the Textile Tuesday Challenge, as I am not feeling lucky at all right now. When I gave the theme I thought our dog Daisy was much better and we had a very good chance that she might get off the cortisone sooner or later. Then, on wednesday, she had a very bad relapse and now I am all down. I contacted another vet who is a dog therapist, too, and hope she will be able to help us to get the dosage down. It is quite complicated cause her behavioural problems cause a lot of stress and as cortisone is a stress hormone it is more than difficult to find the right dosage for her. The vet at the clinic doesn´t understand at all that Daisy isn´t just a body filled with organs but a living creature with a lot of stress and problems due to her former life.
It is so hard for me right now, cause Daisy and I fought so many battles together. She is such a brave girl and now those damn allergies and the stress might be her end.
So, I didn´t feel lucky at all while I was stitching, but as always it helped to get my mind off the problems for a short while.

Sorry to hear Daisy is having a difficult time. I know the stress that puts on you too. I like the design of your piece.
