Fostering a Puppy & Being a Nurse

So, here's the story:

My cousin was driving home at about 11PM and suddenly saw two little white paws in the middle of the road. He hit the brakes, and got out to find a shivering, starving little puppy sitting in the middle of the road. His ribs and spine were very visible beneath his dirty fur, his stomach was horribly distended, and the puppy's nails were extremely long. He was so malnourished that his entire body was cramped to one side; he could barely walk. My cousin took the puppy to my parents' house, where my cousin is currently residing, and gave the puppy a bath and trimmed his nails. This took place about a week ago, on Friday night.

I'm fostering him now, and he's doing so much better. He's actually acting like a puppy now! I even made him a little fleece jacket since it's been so cold outside.

I took him to the vet on January 28th, and he has a high amount of intestinal parasites, so we'll get that taken care of this week. He was also put on Amforol tablets for loose stools, and it has definitely helped. Hopefully, I can find this sweet little guy a home.

Aiding my Mom in Her Recovery

Yesterday, my mom had surgery on her knee. She had a torn ACL and a tear in the meniscus. She's doing well, and today I have to go pick her up from the hospital and be her nurse for the next couple of days. I know she's going to be in a lot of pain, but I have to make sure she does her exercises every hour. Well, I better go get ready for the day!
