Thanks so much you guys!!! I am happy to report she is getting lots of kisses and hugs and cuddles . I was just down on the floor with her while she is laying on her big pillow. Just watching her breath and being so thankful she is home with us.

She is doing better. Not out of the woods though. But she wants to eat now . So we have her on a bland diet of boiled chicken or hamburger and rice. I decided the chicken and rice sounded better than boiled hamburger lol. EWWWWWWWW! She is doing # 2 .. more solid now . Which is good. She has her prance in her step now too. That is more like our Heidi Sue.
I got her some steps to go up and down to get on her chair or on the bed. The vet would rather have her doing steps than jumping with the arthritic lesions . And best of all .. her little black beady eyes are starting to glisten again. All this is putting a smile back on my face .. even if it is early to do so. She is the one of the most important things in my life that makes me happy to be alive.
