<DIV>Poor Ben, not only is he suffering from pancreatitis, but now something
else is wrong with him. When I came home from getting my glasses
yesterday, he was not able to jump up on the couch and his chair like
normal. He has no problem walking, or running around like a maniac, or
climbing up and down stairs, but will not jump up on the couch or
chair. He gets off ok, but needs a lift up, or a cushion or has to climb
up somehow. If things do not get better over the weekend, I will have to
take him to the vet. If only he could talk. </DIV>
