due to Circumstances, there is a greater-than-zero chance that my sister and i will have a dog soon

#ray speaks #yeah so i mentioned this yesterday but our uncle has suddenly fallen ill. as of today he is responding well to treatment but-- #--he will be in the hospital for a while and will never fully recover. #he and his wife have 2 dogs; a dachshund and a jack russell. wife finds it hard to care for both dogs by herself. #when my uncle came to visit us he brought his dachshund with him so that his wife would only have to worry about her jack russell #now uncle will probably no longer be able to care for the dogs like he used to... and all this might be too much for his wife.... #and my sister and i live fairly close to them; and they don't really have other family or friends nearby...... #so. my sister and i talked about it briefly today & we decided we are willing to take one of the dogs if it comes to that. #really it would be my sister taking the dog but we live together so. we would have a dog. in our home #it's only a Maybe right now; just a Possibility #but..... it really is a possibility. it really is #we might end up with a funny lil wirehaired dachshund in our house. a fuzzy lil guy #or we could theoretically end up with the jack russell but really the dachshund is uncle's dog & the jack russell is his wife's #so *if* we take one of the dogs it would *most likely* be the dachshund #regardless. really crazy developments happening in our lives right now
