Smile For the Camera


Olivia had a good week again last week. She's been home for just over 2 weeks, a record for her :) 
We did get her blood results last week (sorry, I didn't mean to keep people in suspense) it's just been busy with Heartworm season at work to get much computer time. Olivia's Liver (ALT & AST) values improved slightly, back into the 200's where they will most likely stay for the forseable future. Her Bilirubin/Jaundice levels are unchanged. Her latest weight last week was 7lbs 6.8oz,  growing about 1/2oz a day now, right on schedule.

As you can tell from the picture and her previous video, Little Peanut likes to smile. She's about to start laughing in the next weeks, you can tell she's trying to put noises with the smile, but it's just not happening yet. Never fear, we'll torture you with more silly video once it happens.

She's got a big week this week though. Cardiologist tomorrow, Blood Work Thursday, and GI/Liver appointment Friday. Hopefully she'll meet all her benchmarks and get good progress reports. More as the results keep coming in this week.
