I especially agree with Zack and Joe. The idea of a walker or other assistive device to help keep Buddy from falling I believe is excellent. I also think that if my message packet has already left it also had that idea conveyed. If it didn't it should have. I also think that it might be a good idea as Zack said to get some additional counseling. The stress levels for the two of you has to be going through the roof. I know that when these problems occur with Jeanne that's what we do. It really helps to sometimes be able to vocalize these problems. I know that the board helps but sometimes that's not enough. It's better to get help before rather then too late. I guess that I've gone on long enough. My best to you and Buddy.
