Coopers Surprise

On Tuesday night, when I went to visit my best friend (Cooper) she requested a brown and soft dog. So Aunt Tandi found an awesome stuffed animal and brought it down the next day. As soon as Aunti Tandi gave her the stuffed animal Cooper said... " I thought I was getting a REAL doggie". LOL ....Cooper is obsessed with dogs.I don't think she has ever been away from all the dogs this long minus one trip 2 years ago to the hospital for 12 days!  Uncle Derek and I have 2 westies, Mom Mom has a yorkie and grey hound and Gigi and Pop's have 2 Great Danes and 3 dachshunds. Lets just say she has lots of play buddies that aren't human! So for the past week while she has been "locked up in solitary" she has really been missing all of her friends! The Great Danes especially! So on Wednesday night the Nurses asked GIGI if Cooper would enjoy if the therapy dogs came and visited her today. My mom thought it would be a GREAT surprise and Cooper LOVED IT! A beautiful Golden Retriever named Cindy came and visited her! It was the first time since Thursday that Cooper was allowed to leave her room besides chest x-rays or something like that. She got to walk the dog up and down the hallways and have a "love fest" with her. She really enjoyed it and was great to see her eyes light up again! She was disappointed when the dog had to leave but it was definitely a wonderful surprise for out little Super Cooper!
