| Update on Soo Soo is Teddy's cousin and I mentioned her in my 'I'm a Newby' post. She has some breathing problems and had Xrays which showed she had either a lung infection or lung cancer. She also has an enlarged heart and enlarged liver. She spent half a day in an oxygen tent and seemed to perk up a bit. She is being given steroids and anti-biotics and yesterday went into the garden to bark at a cat so we are hoping she is a bit better. We are not sure how long she will still be with us but are taking the advice of the vet on that. |

| Oh, I'm so sorry to hear this! I do hope it is an infection that can be cured. We will keep our fingers crossed and say prayers at our house. Hugs |

| How is the little one today? Any good news for us? I couldn't get that puppy off my mind last night! I know it seems like she has a lot going against her right now but I believe in the miracle of prayers and YT members are the best when it comes to praying for our furry kids. We get great results! Don't give up hope! Hugs |

| Soo has had another Xray which shows an improvement. There are still patches of infection in her lungs so she has some more anti-biotics. She has recently appeared to be approaching senility too so the vet has prescribed some medication to increase the blood flow. This will help to put more blood into her brain and will help with the chest problems. She will have to take this long-term. She has improved quite a lot and is being her usual self. Thank you for all your kind thoughts and prayers. |
