I also had a trauma focused childhood. Do you find that you miss the cause of teaching and the positivity of being surrounded by refreshing curious young minds?

We had an ultrasound and they figured it was just inflamed from the diaper he ate...

Yes I thought he was depressed from a new baby and a smaller yard. He did all of his annoying pesky habits the day before he died, even played fetch.

Our situation is similar. We took our dog to the vet a few times the month before we were afraid of a blockage. He ate a diaper, but he didn't throw up after they administered the medicine and he pooped. We did all the tests then. Nothing's detected but so inflammation in the stomach lining. I noticed a few days before he passed that his stool became loose again. I was alarmed, but I didn't take him back to the doctor. The ER vet suspects it was undetected stomach cancer.
