Emergency hospitalisation

This morning, Dylan wasn't too bad first thing this morning and I was actually quite pleased. However, once he had his meal he started really hurting much more, couldn't settle and was crying out loudly. He was in so much pain.

When it didn't pass, I went to my vets for pain relief. They injected him with vetergesic. It helped a little, he was able to lay down at least, but no more than that. I then called Davide and asked him whether I could bring Dylan in as he was in so much pain. He was crying most of the way to the AHT.

Dylan was hospitalised immediately, and was given methadone. Davide said that if that's not enough, they will give him morphine as well. Tomorrow he will have radiotherapy. If that doesn't give him enough pain relief either, then I will have to make that final decision. I am in bits and have been crying for most of the day (even to the vet's this morning). I just can't imagine life without Dylan, yet, I will not let him suffer any longer if there is nothing that can help.

Here's a tiny clip of Dylan yesterday.
