Matt's Diary

You poor things!
Matt, salty foods raise the water content in your bronchial tissues which may lead to thicker mucus and inflammation in your lungs. Processed food is usually high in salt. Some fresh fruit in your diet might help. I have a hot honey & lemon drink every night, all year around & find that really helps. Hope you feel better soon xo

This hasn't been my week. I'm still a little sick though I think I'm getting better, but a piece of my tooth came off!I guess the good thing is it will keep me from eating sweets!

I'll try some more fresh fruit and some honey, though like I mentioned earlier a piece of my tooth fell off so I'm worried it'll hurt if I eat something sweet, like fruit. Luckily my dog seems to be doing better she hasn't had any accidents inside, and she's not waking me up at 5 am wanting to go out!

A crap day, first my weight went up 5 lbs, then I had to go to the dentist to get my tooth filled, and ended with me having to take Misty to the Emergency Vet since she during our walk she grabbed, and ate a condom(!) before I could take it from her.

Thanks we're doing better. My dog is fine she was a bit woozy from the meds they gave her to try to get her to vomit (she didn't) but perked back up in a few hours and was able to go on a 2 hour walk without any problems. The only things that didn't come out as well were the backseat of my car, that I had to clean and of course my wallet!
