Gracie sent me an email with pictures! Here's what she said, "I went to the cardiologist yesterday-- I have a heart murmur, so they are making sure all is fine."
Here I am getting checked in. Dana went with us. She's my
friend from Brentwood and she held me and lifted me and that was nice. See how
good I am.
Dana is holding me while Tyler checks my BP.
Dr Small is the cardiologist and she is checking
me. I really love getting all this attention! I am such a special girl!
Dr Small is giving me a kiss and telling me how good I was.
Then they made Mom and Dana leave and they did an ultra sound and Xray and I did
not like that. Dr. Small says I have a mild murmur and she will follow that
with another check in four months but my squished face is creating some problems
in breathing and when I go back the surgeon will look down my throat to see if
he can help. She wants me to cut back on my treats and lose a bit of weight and
to not overexert myself or get overheated. We were there about three hours and
I was sooo tired. Mom was tired too. Linda did you see how I kept smiling
while they were checking me? Wasn't that nice???? (Gracie, I saw how brave you were!!"
After it was all done, I got to go home and just veg on my couch! Oh, my, this was an exhausting day! Maybe Mom will give me a treat-- forget what the doctor said about cutting back on my treats! I deserve one!
Gracie - this is your girlfriend Moi Moi from Australia talking to you -
ReplyDeleteI wish we lived near each other Gracie for I have an enlarged heart and I take heart meds - Like you I have to keep my weight off too - no treats :(
I think it would be fun if we could work-out together but I am a bit pudgy and a lycra suit would make my bum and belly look fat! LOL!
You be good and do what the doctor tells you girlfriend! Woof Darlin!
