But the worst thing for me to realize was that a month or two in advance of the drinking and accidents, he stopped sleeping through the night. He'd whine and cry during the night. I realized later that he was in so much pain.

Memorial Day weekend is when I realized that I should have paid attention to his whining months before. He cried all weekend. (He was diagnosed on that Friday - but not given insulin) I think we got 3 hours of sleep from Friday to Tuesday. I had taken him to the Emergency Vet, but they contradicted my regular vet and said that my dog was not diabetic (without doing ANY tests) and said that Chester only had arthritis and gave him Tramadol as a pain killer. Well, the Tramadol didn't TOUCH his pain.

I now pay attention to every change in Chester. He's at the vet for every little thing. Seems a bit hypochondriac-ic, but he deserves me to take care of him since he can't take care of himself.

Happy New Year!
