Bob Bee

This past Friday I was on yet another dog walk with Bob and Rusty. As usual, Bob and Rusty had a contest on who could 'mark' the most things. No object is off limits. I try to avoid them from targeting newspapers and other things that people would be unhappy about.

On the way back to the car, they decided to visit some bushes. I noticed a bunch of bees buzzing around. Now that the weather is finally getting warmer, the plants are starting to sprout flowers.

I was able to pull Rusty away from the bees, but I think it was too late for Bob. He didn't yelp, but when we got home, he started to act odd.

Both back legs were shaking and he just stared at us with his mouth open. He wasn't able to walk very well. When he did, he hopped on one leg.

He mostly laid down and wouldn't eat a thing. The next morning, he was slightly better as far as walking. But when he did, he was moving very slowly.

However, he still would not eat. He slept the entire day. He didn't even move when I asked if he wanted to go for a walk. This was Saturday. We decided to take him to the animal hospital on Sunday if he showed no improvement.

When Sunday morning came about, we were so relieved.

He was back to being Bob. He was excited to go for a walk and he finally ate some food.

God heard our prayers and healed our special buddy.
