Today, I came home from the library, and my son is gone (not surprising, I really didn't expect him to be home. He spends very little awake time at home), and the front door behind the glass open, his pillow and sheet on the sofa (where he's been sleeping lately cause his room heats up) instead of the cover I have to protect it from the dogs sitting on it, none of his chores done, and one of my dogs is missing.
Hunter's an escape artist. She is notorious for finding holes under the fence where no one suspects them. When you let her out, you have to escort her or she may very well disapeer. She's also going into heat, which gives her more of an urge to run. To make things more interesting, we've also been told by the city fathers if they find her out again, we will have to go to court and pay court costs for an out of control animal.
I am worried about her. She's a beautiful pedigree golden retriever from a champion blood line. She never met a person she didn't like. She was in one accident as a pup because of her running away tendencies, but got lucky. She did have a name tag with our phone number on the collar but we haven't gotten any calls, not from Animal Control or someone who found her. I wonder if she lost her tag? She is chipped.
Son, who went to his brother's without taking his meds still hasn't taken his meds. They are for depression. This is three full days without them.
He's at an elevated risk for convulsions from cold turkeying on one of those meds. And he came home from his brother's especially last night to take his meds. And he didn't take them.
I've been having problems with depression myself, my anxiety level is high, and I know this makes it even worse on my hubby, who is also worried.
I don't know which of my babies to cry for. Both of them, I guess!
Please remember my son and my doggie and all of us in your prayers. I would really, really really appreciate it!
Prayer request ping from a worried mom....
Prayers for a quick recovery of both your lost babies!
Hang in there....how old is your son?
Undead ping, please, whoever sees it first.
He's 17. Hard-headed. Depressed. Has PTSD and a huge case of survivor guilt and girlfriend troubles. He wasn't suicidal or anything like that, but not taking meds can change that.
Aw...It's gonna be ok...Everything will work out...All things work together for good for those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose...
God even cares for the little sparrows...(of course your little doggie might be chasing the little sparrows...)LOL
Bless his heart....and yours too! I certainly will say a prayer for your family. I also have a golden....he's too old to roam....they are the sweetest dogs.
Done and done. Thoughts and prayers for both your 'kids'.
We've got a 2 yr old Rottweiler who got out twice and I went nuts both times. I've also got a step daughter on anti-depression meds and another who has night seizures so I understand from that side of your problem as well.
I got your backs, Girls...
Prayers for you and your babies sent up.
Prayers for your son and your whole family.
Remember the order for God's plan:
God,
Family,
Work,
Other things.
The pets come last, sorry, Knitting.

Thanks. She needs all the help she can get.
I'm glad there are folks like you around. *hugs*
God bless you and your family.
Prayers for you and your family.
Dear Lord,
Please Embrace this Family in Your Bright Light of Grace and Love,and Please Send home safely this Woman's son and dog too..Thank You Lord, Amen.
The immediate problem with your sun is not the disappearance but neglecting the meds. Can you reach him at his brother's? what prevents someone from taking the meds to him or taking him home? Or has he disappeared as well and I misunderstand your post?
I had a golden retriever girl just like this. Goldens need to roam. If your neighborhood is reasonably rural, and if you have a reasonable dogcatcher, don't worry. She'll be back.
God, protect your servant KAC's son in his adolescence, and protect Hunter from evil people.
Amen
