Hi Beth, I haven't been on here for quite a while, but just wanted to say how very sorry I am for your loss of little Smidgen and now concerns for Chassis. Happy thoughts being sent that she stabilizes and lives a long happy life. Congrats on your Pap adoption too! Would love to see pics of all the babies.

When I came home at lunch yesterday she had a coughing fit that just went on ! We were at the vets 1st thing this morning. I was really worried as this is how Smidgens Heart failure symptoms started. The doctor listen to her heart and did confirm she does have a murmur! My heart fell in to my stomach when he said that. They took ex-ray's and she isn't in heart failure! Thank God.. She has a congenital defect of her trachea. It is not straight like it should be. She also has a bronchial infection, that is suspect she got from Caramella my new adopted Papillon. So she is on some antibiotics for the infection, and diuretics to get the fluids out of her . Also a vaporizer. She is at a stage 3 murmur, but the doctor said she doesn't need any meds for her heart . I hate the diuretics just cause I know they are really hard on the kidneys and liver.. I will post more with her updates. Please say a Prayer for Chassis. So not ready too lose her so soon after her Mama. Beth
