The ENT (ear, nose, throat) Doc checked her out yesterday. Good news: he didn't see anything wrong with her airway. They thought that her airway was collapsing while she was breathing, but he said it looked good. Not-so-good news: he saw a lot of evidence that she has acid reflux. This wasn't new news. She's been on medication for it for a few weeks now. Everything looked red and not so good. New Plan: try to wean her off the oxygen, and if she can't come off her 'elephant nose' by next week, the ENT Doc needs to do another exam, but next time Curly Q will have to be sedated. Hopefully she can just wean off her oxygen level in the next week.
I finally remembered to grab my camera and take some pictures. The lighting wasn't good at the hospital, and we're not supposed to use a flash, so these pictures aren't the greatest quality, but you can get a look at our cutie.

"Stick 'em up!"
Curly Q is stretching, just trying to wake up.
You can see her double chin and chubby cheeks. She's getting bigger. But you can also see in comparison to my hand, she's still pretty tiny.

She's so adorable!
