If this doesn't make you feel better when you are sick nothing will. What better medicine than a warm, soft puppy to cuddle up with. Paige was actually awake watching the puppy for me while I went in to get ready for bed. I just had her close her eyes so that the flash would not blind her. The lights were out in her room just the nightlight was on. The camera takes good photos in the dark on the nightime setting. After I was done I put Rebel in his puppy carrier bed for the night and Paige slept with her assortment of stuffed animals. She woke up all better in the a.m. so it must have worked! ha ha :)
