Rabbit Update - The Sequel

[bk_forever]

So, new update. I just spoke to vetinary nurse Rhiannon, and Misty is out of surgery and awake. They're coaxing him to nibble some food and things are looking reasonably good. He's staying there another night so they can keep a close eye on him, just to be on the safe side, but I'm to phone at 9am tomorrow and hopefully he'll be well enough to come home then. I'll let you know when he's home.

Thank you to everyone for your hugs, good wishes, thoughts and prayers, you've helped me get through two very stressful, worrying days. I'm blessed to have so many great, animal-loving friends, you're the best!

Yes, I sure hope the acupuncture works and that this Dr. Han isn't a mean old guy. People say he is tempromental, not sure what that means though. He is suppose to be very good at what he does so I will give it a try. Never thought I would ever have the courage to try acupuncture, but never expected all these things to happen to me.

Yeah, hoping she is a sweet lady and easy to talk to. I talked to my Mom some on the phone today because I have been in a deep dark hole for two days crying over my situation and pain. Michael couldn't take it anymore and called my parents. I will try to call her when I am upset instead of unloading on Michael if I can. She told me she wanted me to. She is a really good mom. :)

I hope the check-up went well with Misty. Sorry to hear he is still not eating enough. Maybe the antibiotics are making him feel bad. They do that to me sometimes, but I am not sure how that works on rabbits. Poor little guy. Keep me updated.

love Deb. :D

Well, Misty is eating some things but not others. He's eating his cabbage and he ate half a grape. Pineapple juice is supposed to be good for getting rabbit insides working, and rabbits are supposed to love the taste. Misty, of course, seems to hate it. I managed to get a bit down him, don't know if it will do him any good. The vet recommended Basil and another herb, can't remember what it's called. I gave him some of both, I think he ate a bit, but he waited until it was wilted. Giving him tummy massages about 5 or 6 times a day should also help. Luckily, I can massage him while he's in his house, if he cooperates. He doesn't always.

It's good to have a mum you can talk to if you're upset. Your family sound lovely. I can't talk to mine, she doesn't like me getting upset, not for my sake but for hers. She says I should repress what I'm feeling. I'm supposed to go around with a smile on my face at all times so as not to bother her. I guess that's why I have nightmares where I'm screaming and hitting her. Not at all pleasant. Ah well, such is life.

*gentle hugs* Love ya ♥
