Stoned Chloe

Today Chloe had to go to the internal vet specialist for an endoscopy. Luckily, the vet saw nothing wrong beyond a little inflamed small intestine. Turns out she most likely has IBS (like mother, like daughter I guess!) but we'll get the formal results from the biopsies and blood tests next week. She looked so pitiful when I picked her up this afternoon. She had a bandage wrapped around one leg (like a polo wrap on a horse) over where she had her IV. Tonight I unwrapped her leg and they had shaved it!!! Now my poor pretty girl has a shaved leg - like someone started giving her a poodle cut and then gave up. Hopefully it'll grow back quickly, because she does look pretty funny. She was still kinda drugged from the procedure and has been acting really funny. She's just very hypotonic, falls over in my lap and falls asleep. And of course, she's playing it for all it's worth.

I have to say physically I'm doing better than Chloe. After my hip hop class on Monday night, I felt like a 95 year old who needed a hip replacement, but I think I'm getting back to normal. Hopefully the pain means it's working! Haven't heard from Chris, so I take it he's feeling better and made it to the Inca hike to Macchu Piccu. Have I mentioned I miss him?
