The 2nd Treatment - finally ;)

Hello again, I just wanted to let everyone know - Maggie got her 2nd heartworm treatment last Thursday morning. 5/4/06. As Maggies new mom, I will admit - I was scared beyond words, but I have complete faith in my vets - the three of them are AWESOME!!! Dr. Ken, turned Maggie over to Dr. Ben - as Dr. Sarah and Dr. Ben have a newer clinic, with a lot more equipment to deal with serious problems. Dr. Ken has been my vet for over 30 yrs, and he is excellant, but he will be honest and tell me, when he feels he does not have the equipment or the background to deal with a more serious case. And Maggie was a very serious case, as she did not deal well with the 1st heartworm treatment she had before she came to me.
















My vets decided to do an EKG on Maggie, before the 2nd heart worm treatment - and confer with some doggie heart specialists in Texas - to get some answers to some very serious questions they had, and to know IF it was safe to go on with the 2nd treatment or not. The EKG turned out ok, so she went in for the 2ne treatment Thur...... she seems to be doing fine. Somehow, I think, that she is ALSO in general - better health this time........and that is helping too. But we are still "not out of the woods yet".............so please keep Maggie Mae in your thoughts and prayers - till we get out of this "definate 6 week window." Thanks to all of you, for listening and caring. It means more than I can tell you!!!! I will keep you posted, as to her progress. Hope you all have a great week!!!!

Hugs,
Sharman & Maggie Mae :) :P)
