TINSEL, WARRIOR AND ELYZA FEELING A BIT UNDER THE WEATHER
[clear]
Dr. Cardona came out yesterday to examine Tinsel and Warrior. Both were not feeling well. Their heart and respiratory rates were elevated. Tinsel has also been running a slight temperature and hasn’t been finishing her meals.

Little Warrior was such a good boy for Dr. Cardona.

Dr. Cardona also examined Elyza Rose’s eyes. She recently tore her lower right eyelid, but thankfully, it’s healing nicely. The ulcer in her left eye is a bit worse. So, more meds, more often. In addition to running blood work on Tinsel and Warrior, Dr. Cardona also ran blood work on Elyza to compare to her blood test results from two weeks ago as there were some issues at the time. I need to send out a detailed update about what’s been going on with her. Hopefully, we will receive the blood test results today. I’m not sure how much yesterday’s vet bill is, but I know it’s a lot. Two exams, one eye exam, blood tests on all three, and medications. It’s going to be several hundred dollars so if anyone would like to help it would be very much appreciated.
