My first sight this morning? A little collie looking down at me on the floor smiling with the tip of her tail twitching. What a sight for sore eyes she was. Before I’d even had time to draw a breath a big black wet nose was in my left eye with a tongue wrapped a [...]

You can go right off roller-coasters.
Heidi called to me at 5 this morning & I found her shaking all over, slightly chilly, with cold feet & very pale again. I sat quietly doing TTouch with her for about 5 minutes & she calmed. Her colour had returned so I went back to bed. At 8 [...]

Heidi is brighter today, but certainly wasn’t up to going out for a walk – maybe she heard Barbara saying that she was going to be taking things easy for a couple of days. Instead, she snuggled into me on the floor for more cuddles.
It struck me at that moment how much TTouch can do [...]

This is written with some hesitancy.
We had a shock today. Heidi looked a little uncomfortable when she walked over to me so I checked to see whether her lump had maybe got caught in the bottom edge of her t-shirt (it hadn’t happened yet, but you never know). I felt her lump, then I felt [...]

I’ve just been looking back through the blog & it’s very easy to forget how far Heidi has come in such a short space of time.
This is the wound on her neck now:
She hardly scratches at it but always looks over to me when she does & if she’s too close to the wound I [...]

All well on the western front.
Yesterday morning & this morning was greeted with cold legs & feet so I spent about 1/2 hour doing Ttouch over her ears to support her heart & all over her body for the circulation. She adores Abalone on her torso – her eyes just seem to melt away as she slips [...]

Heidi is amazing. The extra dose of herbs each day is doing the trick & her legs are warm & her tongue has lost its blue tinge. Thank you Barbara.
HRH has been really bright & managed a trip out yesterday with my parents to a garden centre. She looked a little flat at one point [...]

Heidi is much brighter this morning but still icy cold in the leg department. I have put her body suit on her after a load of TTouch. Her ears are at least warm now & her legs & feet are less sensitive to being touched; it must be horrible being so cold in the extremities, [...]

We had an unscheduled trip to the vet this morning. Heidi’s gums were very pale & her legs were icy cold again from first thing this morning & the Carb Veg was making little difference so Barbara suggested I brought her in. Heidi met a beautiful blue merle collie (sporting a TTouch body wrap for [...]

Is it really a whole week since her thyroid operation? It seems like a very, very long time ago.
Something we have noticed is that at 11am each day she appears to have a dip when her tongue has a slight bluish tinge, her gums are very pale, either her legs or ears go very cold & she seems [...]
