Hi FurFriends..
I hope everyone is enjoying springtime.
Last week out of the blue I started coughing and coughing. Mommy rescuer thought I might be having an asthmatic attack, so she got the inhaler ready and gave me a puff. It helped for about two hours then started over again. She thought it was too soon to give me another puff so she called the Doc and they said to wait another hour or to just bring me in. Mom rescuer is always worried about my heart, so she rushed me in. They immediately put me in oxygen therapy, til I was stable. Needless to say, I had to spend the night, they did a chest X Ray and everything was normal. Mom got a call the next morning saying that I may have an upper respiratory infection again and that I was sort of snorting and making noises when breathing. The ER Doctor on call said I may have a polyp or something in my nose that got infected. It seems like every time I go to the Doc they find something wrong with me, as I have a lot of things wrong with me already. I've been taking a raspberry antibiotic liquid (doxycycline) for the past week and have a few more days to go. Raspberries! They recommend a scope of the upper airway to rule out polyps or some other abnormality. I'm hoping I don't have to have this done, but whatever it takes, Mom said she'll try to make me feel as better as I can. I seem to be normal and acting crazy. I do miss my Brother though, as I like to cuddle with him at night, anyway I have Mommy all to myself this week. Feel better Bro, Purrs!
Love & Hugs;
Em

Well, raspberries on having breathing problems, Ember! I'll bet that raspberry medicine tastes better than it not being raspberry! We'll start purring for you too because it stinks when you don't feel good! We've also got our purrs on overdrive for KiKi! Take care and feel better soon!
