Keeping an Eye on Things
Lily went to the doctor yesterday for a follow-up visit. Back at her 2 year check-up, they noticed that she had an astigmatism in her right eye. It didn't seem to be affecting her vision at all, but they wanted her to come back in 6 months to check on it. So, my tall girl person took her in yesterday. Thankfully, it seems to have corrected itself with no harm done. They'll check it again at her 3 year appointment. While they were there, they went ahead and checked her weight (up to a whopping 26.5 lbs.), her temperature (which she did not like having done, even though they check under her arm just like mom and dad do at home), and the usual listen to her heart business. The doctor was going to check her teeth and ears, but she wasn't having any of that. Thankfully, there are no concerns about either, so it wasn't a big deal to skip that part. Looks like my people have a bit of preparation to do with her before her 3 year check-up. Perhaps a doctor's kit and a book about what to expect at the doctor's office are in order. My girl person tried to prep Lily before this visit and Lily seemed very gung-ho and excited about it, but got cold feet once they got to the office. Better luck next time.

There is a great Arthur book about the doctor. Even comes with doctor stickers that can be used on the pages to show all the things that will happen. Highly recommend it!
And this is being reported by the big, brave dog who so loves to go to his doctor. Do you still take those "happy" pills before you visit your doctor?
