はなちゃん、ごはんを食べなくなって10日になります。
It's been 10 days since Hana stopped eating.
シリンジで辛うじてお水は飲んでいます。
She's drinking water I give to her in a syringe, but just barely.
迷子になっているところを2009年8月に成犬で保護したので、はっきりとした年齢はわかりませんが、14、５歳でしょうか。
She was lost when I took her in back in August of 2009, so I don't know her exact age, but it must be somewhere around 14 or 15.
半年くらい前から痴呆の症状が出て、トイレができなくなったり狭いところに頭から突っ込んで動けなくなったりしていました。
She started showing signs of dementia about half a year ago. She couldn't go potty, and she started sticking her head into narrow spaces and was unable to move.
でもそれらを除けば食事はしっかりととって体重も維持して内臓にも問題なし。
徐々に筋肉が落ちて体が支えられなくなりました。
But those things aside, she was eating properly and maintaining her weight, with no problems to her organs. Her muscle started deteriorating bit by bit, and she stopped being able to support her weight.
食べなくなって１０日。それでも４〜５時間おきに大きな声で鳴いてバタバタと動きたがります。体を支えて立たせると「その場足踏み」のような事をして、しばらくすると立ったまま寝てしまいます。どこにそんな体力が残っているのか不思議です。生きることへの執着なのか…。幸い痛みや苦しみはなさそうです。
It's been 10 days since she stopped eating. Nevertheless, every 4-5 hours or so she lets out a big whine and starts moving around flustered. If I stand her up supporting her weight, she starts stepping in place, and then after a while falls asleep while standing. I don't know where that strength is remaining--it's pretty odd. Is it her will to live...? She doesn't seem to be in pain or any suffering, luckily.
おそらくあと数日でさよならの時が来るでしょう。自然な形で旅立てるようしっかりとお看取りをしていきます
There's a strong possibility that we'll have to say goodbye some day soon. I'll keep caring for her so she can leave us naturally, when her time comes.
