Sophie

Today marks the seven month anniversary from the day we brought Sophie from the veterinarian.  She is doing great (kanena hora).  She is getting around just fine. It is hard to tell that she has any problems.

We are still hydrating (injecting 125 mg of lactated ringers solution into the scruff of Sophie’s neck) three days on one day off.  The hydration is going much better now than it was.  We were originally given a #18 needle for the hydration but thought it was too big for Sophie so we asked if we could go to a #20 needle.  He said it would be ok.  After a couple of months of using the smaller needle we went back to the #18.  While bigger, the #18 allowed the solution to flow more quickly allowing for a shorter time to hydrate.  Sophie also seemed to be more comfortable with the bigger needle too.

We are always aware that this is a day to day blessing and we are thankful every day to have Sophie with us .
