Staying the Course

Thor is still doing well. Still active and eating well. He is coming due for is annual cardiac exam. I thought for all of two seconds about skipping it. My concern is I know he will have to wear a Holter monitor for 24 hrs and that means being taped around his belly. The cardiologist is in the same office as the internist so I am sure they can come up with a safe way to tape him.

 Plus I want to talk to him about a Chinese herbal supplement I found that promotes clotting, bayaio yunnan. I want to make sure it will not effect Thor's heart or his medication in any way if given daily. Or even if I just give it when there is a small bleed. I don't want to trade one problem for another.

I am also unfortunately going to have push back his appointment a week or so. Our a/c sprung a leak and had to be replaced. That was $3000 I wasn't planning on spending and the budget is beyond tight this month. (Actually for the next few months to make up for that big of a ding.) I just hope I can keep the option of pushing it back. It has been eight weeks since we found out about the tumor and he is still doing well. I just hope that doesn't change.
