V I feel the same way!! I don't know if this is good or bad news. Katie is much too thin and has blood in her stool. And now all this about not hearing a murmur anymore. It's all just making me frustrated!

What confuses me is that Katie EATS LIKE A PIGGY!! Last night I fed her and Codie plain white rice with some boiled chicken that I cooked in sodium-free chicken broth. Katie gobbled it up like a hungry hippo! So WHY on earth is she LOSING weight when she eats a lot all the time? If anything, because of the amount she eats, she should be OVER weight -- not under! I know this may sound terrible (so please no one yell at me) but I almost hope she has worms or something else similar to that because at least worms can be treated and cured. If Katie does have a heart murmur, there's no cure for it and it could kill her in the long run. Also worms would explain Katie's blood in her stool and weight loss, wouldn't it?

I'm taking Katie for a second opinion on Tuesday evening after work. Hopefully that, combined with the test results tonight, will help us figure out what is wrong with my little cutie booty girl.
