Good morning everyone,

It's just about 6:20 AM and Cassie is sleeping by my side in my bed. The night was uneventful, thank god, with the exception of my paranoia that she was having trouble breathing. I was up all night watching her breathe (LOL). The doctors say my girls were miracle girls, and that they only survived because I brought them in so quickly and did not wait for symptoms. Especially in a breed as tiny as a Yorkie. They say they would not have survived otherwise.
Also, the quick thinking of one of the doctors in the ER to give Cassie a transfusion and also vitiman K for the clotting thing. Right now they think she may have choked her way into a collapsed trachea, somethng she did not have before. It's too bad, because she was the only one of my babies that didn't have a collapsing trachea. Anyway, I have to go check on Muffy. Will keep you updated.

A most important lesson I've learned: When in doubt, don't think about it-GO TO THE VET

When in doubt, go to the VET!!!
