Could I please ask for good thoughts and prayers for my co-worker Lisa's Chihuahua, Lucy. Or I should say her daughter's Lucy. They adopted her about a year ago at the age of 9. She has a heart murmur and congestive heart failure. She was a foster dog for 2 years before she was adopted and Lisa thinks she was abused in a prior home. Her family (Lisa, her daughter and her husband) adore Lucy and she adores them, regularly asking for petting and snuggles.
She's having a really hard time with the hot summer weather. Her breathing is more labored and she sleeps in the recliner where she keeps her head higher than her body. Lisa's daughter is calling the doctor today to get an increase in Lucy's dose of Lasix (water pill). They love her so much and just can't handle the thought of losing her yet, even though she is almost ten years old. I'm leaky-eyed over this because I don't want her to struggle.
Thank you very much,
Elyse
