Hi friends!
I had quite the day. I went to an emergency dentist appointment for a growth/mass on the roof of my mouth, and now I am scheduled for a CT scan and biopsy on Wednesday. I know I don't owe anyone an explanation for cancellations, especially ones pertaining to my health, but I like everyone to be in the loop 💌
I can't talk well and was advised not to speak much (which is hard for me lol), so I've canceled my private training/one-on-one sessions this week. I have to cancel several weekly walks/sessions on Wednesday as well.
Being a small business owner is extra hard in times like these, because I don't get paid time off/sick days and don't have anyone to cover for me. I absolutely love what I do, but unfortunately there is no business without Ashley. I wish I didn't feel so guilty for taking vacation days, or prioritizing my health, but I also know it's important for me to stay alive so I can come care for your animals ❤️
Thank you to all of my Monday clients who were so supportive and understanding with my unexpected medical visit this morning. You made the day feel a little less scary/stressful.
Anyway, please be patient with me this week as I figure out my dog schedule and navigate my own life. Hoping for some good news later this week.
Much love to everyone who supports my little business, and, more importantly, me. Wishing you all nothing but good things this week 🐾
