Magic Ball

"See this manky tennis ball, it's my favourite and I brought it up especially for you Mum, cause it will make you feel better......
Oh and the fox pee aroma just adds to the healing........
Aren't I good to you!"

Looks expectantly.

"Are you feeling better yet? It was in my book 'A Dogs Guide To Cure Poorly Humans', so better yes?"

Waits a nanosecond more

"Cause if your better we could take the ball and go to the park!"

Poor Ferd he is being so patient looking after me and bringing me his favourite toy.

Well first drink of the yucky rehydration stuff has been consumed today and not nearly as yucky as it was yesterday so thinking it must be working (also there are other signs that I am less dehydrated). In the end yesterday I managed to eat 2 ice lollies, can ice lollies be considered eating? And 2 slices of toast. I think I will try for 3 slices of toast today and maybe even some yogurt.
