Worst came to worse over last couple weeks, puking yellow bile pretty often, has a Kennel Cough hack and hack ups getting worse, then the mistakes.  Used to not get up during night after wife went to bed, had begun doing that and relieving himself on living room floor or rugs, then began pooping same.  I try to get up as he would get off bed as not all that quiet at it, a few times could not coax outdoors and watched as he relieved looking directly at me.   He sleeps a lot, five to six hours at a time, awake long enough to relieve then back to sleep on bed or couch and now on floor as suits.  Is sixteen going on seventeen where has problems with arthritis can barely get up or down, falls often, misses edge of couch or bed and falls off adding to pains.  Vet and I spoke just at three months ago as to his walking to a wall and locking out much as Moscow Mitch, takes a sharp noise as a clap or a foot stomp to dislodge him, her take onset dementia.

The lockouts are increasing, Sis in law was out and complained as to why we would consider putting him down then locked out in front of her and as they sat on couch later pooped on her.  She agreed it is time for their Mother's last vestige of home to pass away gently.  We go to the vet tomorrow afternoon, he will not come home.  Sad days.

Seems awkward my shadow not behind me.
