Yesterday we took Abby to the doctor because she was having some yucky discharge coming out of her left eye. Turns out the little girl has pink eye and a double ear infection! Before diagnosing Abby with the ear infection the doctor looked at Abby's ears and asked us if she had been acting sick. Our answer was, no, she's been her usual self; she's been eating well, sleeping well and playing well. The doctor was shocked that Abby hasn't exhibited any symptoms, other than the gross eye stuff. We hated the idea that she's had these ear infections without us realizing it. She's been one tough cookie. We've gotten her eye drops and some antibiotics to take care of the infections.
At the beginning of the cold/flu season Abby's doctor (who we love by the way) told us that Abby would probably have at least one cold a month until the season was over! Well, as much as we hoped she was wrong, she's been dead on correct. We sure can't wait for this yuckiness to be past us. Even if Abby seems to be feeling well, we still don't like the idea of her being in any kind of discomfort.
After the doctor visit Abby and Ginger had some "cuddle" time. It's amazing how gentle this giant dog is with Abby. She seems to know that she can't be as rough with her as she is with us and will always follw the parent that has Abby.
Much Love,
Moises & Jennifer
