Dogtors and deadlines

Yesterday I had my regular checkup with my heart dogtor to see if my arrhythmia is doing okay under the meds. Can you guess how it went?


Yup, Momma and I are both beaming, because everything was pawfect! Not a single blip on the screen. Hooray! We'll keep at this level of meds, and I don't have to get checked again for TWO whole months!

Momma also saw her dogtor yesterday, but she's not as happy about it. She has been having a lot of trouble with her paws and had to go to a pawdiatrist to have them checked out. She has lots of long words wrong with them, but she has lots of exercises and stuff to do to try to make them better. She's not sure at this point if she can run her next marathon, which is in only a month, so that has her really upset. Pigeon worked super hard to comfort her yesterday, and Jessie and I are SUPER helpful and give her kisses while she does her stretches! Hopefully it'll work out.


Finally, please remember that the dead lion is TOMORROW for jumping in our bouncy house at the Blogville Picnic! Email a pic of you jumping or standing to dreagoddess(at)gmail(dot)com if you'd like to pawticipate.

  9. Great news, Casey - we are over the top happy for you. Poor Mom. Our Mom says if her feet hurt, she is just plain miserable. Hope the doctor can help her fix them.

    Off to see if we can get Mom to get those pics done.

  10. Hope your Mama is feeling better and we're happy you're doing so well. My Mom said to tell her not to let anyone talk her into a cortisone shot in that area, it can rupture the tibial tendon.

    We hope your mom is OK. If two of the words mentioned were "plantar" and "fasciitis", have your mom PM our mom on FB if she wants any tips.
