White Dog was sympathetic...to Steve...to Roman...and to everyone kep awake by the horrible sounds of gacking and gagging and gasping. "I was so hoping you were wrong, momma, and these sickies would not end up hitting all of us."
I called Dr. Julia's office. The first time their system was so overloaded I went to voicemail; I hung up and tried five minutes later. "Hi Jackie." "Oh no, who has it now?" "Sounds like there is lots of this lung thing going around." "Yes, I think everyone with a dog in Albuquerque has called."
"It is Roman. Kept everyone up all night. Same symptoms as Zsofia only much more lung clearing. And remember, he is complicated because of his PTSD. In order for Dr. Julia to examine him, he needs to be sedated. I sure don't want to do that if he is having a pulmonary problem. He is due for his quarterly big exam in a few weeks. Steve has filmed Roman this morning in the porcess of coughing and upheaving, not food, just bubbly lung gunk. He can show Dr. Julia that if she wants a visual but believe me, this is what Zsofia and Siku have."
"I understand Roman is a special case. Let me talk to her and I will call you back to let you know if Steve can just come in and pick up prescriptions."
Jackie's return call gave Steve the green light to go to the clinic for the medicines. "The doctor said if she sees Steve she might take a peek at his movie but she knows you are not the hysterical type." "If it stops Roman who is glued to my leg from coughing stuff up between my feet, I will be a happy momma." "Remember, it might take a few days to start healing." "Hopefully, NOT just enough time for Bailey or Opal to get it."

Oh, we are so sorry that Zso, and now Roman, have whatever this is. We are purring and praying that the meds will stop this thing in its tracks and the rest of you will escape unscathed. XO
