I'm signed up for my first proper audax (as opposed to just riding distances by myself) in two weeks -- the Fox Hat -- but my dog is dying. She has a problem with her liver that we can't investigate because of her age and how stressful it would be (she has panic attacks at the vets), so all we can do is watch as she starves herself despite us trying everything under the sun to get her to eat. Took her to the beach yesterday and I burst into tears when another dog walker told us she is beautiful.
I did a quality of life test, and she's still enjoying her walks and doesn't seem to be in pain, and she's drinking fine, so it's not time yet.
I don't know whether to submit a DNS now, because I suspect I won't be able to leave her if she's still with us, but I wake up every day expecting her to have died in the night.
