So my baby girl has a mild disk injury. I went to the vet in Itaewon today and they did xrays. The doctor didn't see any problems on the xrays but Ellie did make noises when the doctor pressed down on her back. So now she needs to take medicine and I can't walk her for longer than 2-3 minutes for a month. Ellie won't have a problem with that because for the last few days, she goes out and pees one-two times and drags me back to the apartment. That was a huge sign that I needed to take her to the vet because she normally loves walking. I just need to be extra careful with her and make sure she's not jumping on/off my bed. We're going back to see the doctor in a week. Itaewon is only 5 stops from me, but there is a lot of walking to get to/from the train, so it's about a 25-30 minute trip each way. I guess it's worth it to have an English speaking vet. The cost is not cheap, but it's not terribly expensive. I would have rather spent the 112,000won on other things but things happen I guess.

I'm dropping her off with Laura/Chris tonight since I'm going to Busan for a few days. I feel so bad I can't be with her and I really want to watch her carefully. She'll be in good hands though.
