Thank you for your good thoughts, everyone!!

We just got a call from the vet. Kobie's bloodwork doesn't indicate Valley Fever, thank God. She's got a high white cell count, though, and very high counts of something called eosinophils, which together suggest that she's fighting either an allergic or parasitic problem. Yuck. Now she's started on a low dose of prednisone along with the antibiotics, and we have to bring a stool sample Monday. The vet thinks she's either got allergic bronchitis, or maybe a giardia infection. So guess who will be on the computer this afternoon doing internet research on these conditions...

I did the healing hands on Kobie last night when she woke up coughing, and although my DH just snorted at it I really think it made her go back to sleep more easily. I should do this for her every day.

Thanks again, everybody--
