On Wednesday, January 17, 2007 Buddy ruptured another disk in his back while Frankie and I were sleeping. Frankie was fussing and woke me up around 530 AM, that is when I found out that Buddy was in trouble. He could not walk and was experiencing several convulsions and had difficulty breathing. Having been through this 3 times already in the past 7 years, I immediately knew what was wrong.
I kept Buddy as calm as possible and got him into the hospital Thursday morning. There he was seen and treated by his Guardian Angle, Dr. Lena McCullough. She his is acupuncturist and is responsible for his recovery last year. When she was finished with her session, Buddy was completely relaxed and had moved his back legs to stretch them. She gave him a treat, he licked her face, we then knew he was going to pull through.....
From there we went to his Primary Care Vet and got cortisone injections, steroids and antibiotics..... And so the long process of recovery for Buddy has begun again. I will update this often so you can track his progress. Please keep Buddy in your thoughts and prayers; it really does make all the difference!
Next treatment is: Acupuncture Tuesday 1/23/2007
