The heartbreak...

We've had Fiona for 8 days now.
She's truly a joy, very sweet, very playful, very smart.
However

That joy is sometimes overshadowed by the anxiety of knowing that Fiona could be very, very sick.

I'm so angry. I wish this had never happened. I wish we could spend all of our time being completely happy and joyous with Fiona.
Instead, everytime she makes a sound or lies down, I wonder if its normal or a symptom of immenint doom.

We'll probably go ahead and get the cardiac ultrasound, rather than wait a few weeks. It's just so hard waiting. And I hate to think, that what if we wait to long, and we pass by the window to get Fiona treatment.

Unlike her breeders, I couldn't sleep at night if that happened. Just makes me feel sick that her breeders think it is "practical" to destroy her and ship her back in a UPS box to them. So sad.

I'm just so happy to have the chance to give Fiona a fantastic life, home, and chance at a long life.
