Karlee has begun to get a longer coat it now is around a inch hanging on each side of her its still shorter but that is a great idea. My hubby said last night that he could give her a bath instead of me giving her one and see if that helps out.
Also thank you for those defending my situation to a post about someone that was wanting Karlee to give her to a boyfriends sister that was mentally handicapped and who wants her for breeding. I do not want to hurt anyone's feelings or step on anyone's toes over my posting but I feel if I do have to rehome Karlee she needs to be in a home that she can be cared for like a baby. She is used to kids playing with her all the time and requires a lot of attention at times. If I have to rehome Karlee I really want someone who will put her in a home much like the situation she has now. There have been quite a few emails to me that have said they would love to take Karlee and give her a good home, for that I am thankful, and most have really good intentions- a few things I do want to note- if I do have to rehome Karlee I would not want to ship her I would either require for her to be picked up from my home or I would meet with someone at a reasonable distance from my hometown. That being said right now I'm going to do everything I can to work out to keep Karlee...for those that have offered to watch Karlee for us to help us through this situation I want to give a big Thank You! Its nice to know there is such caring people here on YT and those that have offered advice and for those that have posted to keep us in their prayers- Thank you!!! When I first posted I was really devasted and now after reading the postings its helped me through a great deal! I know there is a lot of caring people here on YT and you all have really helped me out so thank all of you. I have saved the emails of those that would like to give Karlee a good home and am thankful to those that could give her a wonderful home! Through YT I have learned so much on how to care for my baby girl and so glad to have this to come to when I need help! This morning I'm watching Karlee jump around and play with her toys she seems so happy, the last couple of days she has seemed clingy to me more than usual its like she senses what I've been feeling. There is several things I am going to try to help our allergies it seems like this morning I feel better than usual and my son was not complaining this morning of itching. We tried a dehumidifier and I have been vaccuming twice a day so right now that seems to help. I have went the extra mile and also been washing Karlee's bedding every other day instead of like every 4 days...my youngest son likes to get Karlee's blankets and lay them out on the floor so that too could have been stirring up a house full of allergies.

Hope things get better!!!! There's a new medicine that you rub on your lip that prevents allergens from going into your nose supposedly, so maybe that will help....but not with the hives. GOOD LUCK |
