Barry I have to laugh and laugh at Fritz. He is the same way to your mom that Ripley is to me. He has to be on my lap no matter what I am doing. I think Fritz and Ripley feel they need to anchor us down lest we should start to suddenly float off up into the sky or something! LOL!

We are all so sorry that Fritz is still having tummy troubles. Ihope today will be the day that he begins to really feel better.

Fritz out laying on the front step after a walk around the house,ate some grass,did it another time later,brought it up.I guess he does this to get this virus out of him with the help of the medication too.Fritz was on his leash which was wrapped around the railing.Fritz laying his head on the botom of the table next to the chair.Mom and I went to a Chinese restaurant called Mandarin,really good food there,haven't been in awhile.Brought home some Lemon chicken which he liked very much.Fritz then had his own food and has a had a drink,went out to the patio while Mom watered plants.We went to the cemetery to put some new flowers there and two solar lights.Dad's headstone was held up by a rail strike,so won't be up for Father's day which will be a little hard,first Father's day for me without him.Marlene put a little writeup for Father's day in our paper,got me sad.I will get it and write in as post tomorrow.Fritz now is under the little cocuh where he will be foe another hour or so .

I'm with Pam! I hope Fritz will start to really feel better! I'm glad that he's interested in your bologna sandwich and lemon chicken. That is so sad about the headstone, wish it could have been in place for Father's Day. I'm glad you were able to put flowers there. Hopefully the headstone will be delivered soon.

Fritz all fours in the air on my bed this morning.He came up when i did so Mom could give him his medication.Fritz first went to the window,heard people talking and barked then shortly after came to my bedroom and slept.He heard the paper come and came out to the livingroom and barked,then went to Mom's bed.This is what my sister put in our paper for Father's Day:In loving memory of Clifford Macklin :What we would give if we could say Hello Dad,in the same old way To hear your voice, and see your smile,To sit with you and chat a while,So you who have a father,cherish him with care ,for you will never know the heartache Till you see his vacant chair.I miss you so much Dad.Always loved and forever missed.Marlene and Larry Bowen ,Wife Betty, Barry Macklin.

Barry, the newspaper tribute is very touching. My father is gone too and, though it has been years now, I can relate to the feelings expressed in that poem. It is just lovely. I hope today won't be too hard for you and your family.

Fritz will make you all smile I am sure. Just watching that silly boy's antics could put a smile on anyone's face. I hope his tummy is much better this morning.

It sounds like you're coming along and getting a little better Fritz. It may take awhile. It's kinda like that here too-our Mom's recovery is slow but sure. We love all the new pictures of you. Especially the one with your little fluffy head under the pillow.

Barry, I'm so sorry the headstone didn't make it in time. What a lovely tribute that Marlene wrote for your dear Dad. I know it speaks for the way you all feel. I still miss my Dad after 40 years. Take care. Kisses to Fritzie.
