To: Amy Rose From: Rouge the bat Subject: Well this is it
I never thought he would give in so easily, I'm almost a little disappointed…expected a real battle on this.
I'm moving in.
RougeTo: Sonic the hedgehog From: Knuckles the echidna Subject: Well this is it
She's moving in.
Knux
To: Knuckles the echidna From: Sonic the hedgehog Subject: Wow
This is a big step for you pal.
Are you sure you're ready to go this far? Well then, I guess it'll be a real test for your relationship…good luck buddy.
Sonic
To: Sonic the hedgehog From: Knuckles the echidna Subject: I know it's wow
I've never been sure about anything...but this just feels right.
I don't need any of your luck. I have plenty of my own.
Knux
To: Rouge the bat From: Amy Rose Subject: Congrats
I didn't realize you two were this serious. I'll have to pay you guys a visit.
I think I'm finally getting Sonic to come around, maybe we can double sometime.
Amy
To: Amy Rose From: Rouge the bat Subject: Sure
I'm going to be looking forward to that.

Journal Entry 12, Amy Rose

The pulmonary doctor I met today was pretty nice. Her name is Dr. Miller; she's a beaver in her mid 30's about and has really curly blonde hair on the top of her head while the rest of her fur is brown. It was pretty funny to see her tail drag on the floor, almostlike she was wearing a dress that was too big. I didn't wanna laugh though, I am after all getting treatment from her.
The first thing she told me is that she was so happy I had never smoked. Smoking is the most common cause of COPD which doesn't really surprise me at all. I've never smoked, I find it quite disgusting to breathe toxic smoke just for fun…I mean eww.
So the doctor was telling me all these ways to keep the condition under control like, try to avoid polluted areas…obviously that's a red flag. She also suggested I get a regular flu vaccine which I have never yet gotten. I was actually supposed to like a few months ago, but I had a little cold and you have to be perfectly healthy in order to get the shot.
I guess it never really crossed my mind that there are different ways to cough. Well, there are and Dr. Miller was showing me how to cough so I can clear my lungs on one or two coughs instead of like seven or who knows how many. She showed me how to belly breathe which I wasn't really used to.
It's weird because when you're a baby you belly breathe all the time, but as you get older you breathe more from the top of your lungs which doesn't get as much air. Belly breathing is how singers get all those high notes out; you sure can't squeak them out with a puny breath. She showed me how to do it by having me lay down flat on the floor, then she put a tissue box on my stomach so I could see how mybelly rose and fell, hence the name belly breathing. (a/n: my chorus teacher gave our class this demonstration, it was so funny) It's pretty comfortable actually…now that I'm getting more used to it.
Dr. Miller then prescribed me some steroids (legal ones) and I'm supposed to take one in the morning and then one at night. She said it's better if I take them on a full stomach…I hope I remember that.
I guess I feel a little better now that I know the odds are pretty good, as long as I take care of myself. I feel pretty confident that I'll get over this thing…no way am I letting it take control of my life, especially now that…now that I know Sonic really does love me.
I'm not going down without a fight!
………my cocoa's ready!
To: Amy Rose From: Sophie the cat Subject: Yesterday
Hey where were you yesterday?
You should've seen the color of Penelope's face when she walked into work with her broken stilettos. It was just not natural.
Me and Steve are trying to come up with a song, you know like something so when it comes on we can be like, "Hey that's our song." Any suggestions?
Sophie
To: Sophie the cat From: Amy Rose Subject: I've got something to tell you
Ladies room, in five.
Amy
To: George Burnstein From: Sophie the cat Subject: A small request
Hello George,
Could you please extend our budget to fit in one more office party? Pretty please? I want our department to throw Amy a get well party…it's for a good cause, not like that Mardi gras party.
Please?
With sugar on top?
Cherries?
Please?
Sophie :)
To: Sophie the cat From: George Burnstein Subject: I wish I could help
I'm very sorry Sophie, but now that I've recently been promoted to Chief Treasurer I can't afford to lose my job simply because I helped fund your little office party.
If I can make a suggestion, why don't you have a small party on your own time…perhaps a restaurant?
Have you tried Café de Verona? I've heard their lasagna is the best.
My apologies,
George
To: George Burnstein From: Sophie the cat Subject: Well, you know what?
Go lick yourself :(
Sophie
To: Jim the monkey From: Sophie the cat Subject: You were right
Amy has come down with something horrible...COPD which is something with her lungs. George is being a blockhead and won't let us throw a get well party...I have to do something nice for Amy.
I mean, she's always helped me and she just started working here like a few months ago.
I don't know what to do.
Sophie :(
To: Sophie the cat From: Jim the funky monkey Subject: Hmm...
I know just the thing!
I have a coupon for the Spring Meadows Spa and I can just never find time to use it. Why don't you and Amy go for a nice, relaxing, Akuta Matata day? She'd love it.
I know...I'm an angel,
Jim
To: Jim the monkey From: Sophie the cat Subject: You're not an angel
You're a saint.
Thanks a million :)
Sophie
To: Sonic the hedgehog From: Miles Tails Prower Subject: You're home
Glad to see you're back in one piece. So would you mind telling me what that was all about? Did whatever that plan was work?
What's going on with you buddy?
Tails
To: Miles Tails Prower From: Sonic the hedgehog Subject: Chillax
I'm just fine.
I'll come over your place and explain everything a little later...I hope your couches are comfortable cuz it's kind of a long story.
Sonic
