OK the long awaited Riti update. She staying put until Thursday due to the fact that she still has fluid build up AND the injections of Lasix. Dr Dahlhausen says she will only need a couple, three hopeful at the most. So she go back down a couple of times for the injection and to be checked. I did ask if they knew the cause and it's either cartiac or reproductive.

They did say she's doing better and is eating, DUH, but we don't to rush things.

There are lots of cardiac medications for birds too. Won't he allow you to give the Lasix to Riti?

He thinks a couple of more shots and she be OK and I'd rather be playing Vet myself, I have this thing about needles. A couple of trips won't hurt us, I was afraid it was going to be an ongoing thing.

I give Lasix to Bitty orally. I just drop it on his nutriberries.

Prayers for her and you.
