Oh, Mercy!!!!!!!! I am so sorry to hear this news. But, it sounds like the baby is being taken care of well. And, listen to your vet. Lung contusions are bruises and they take time to heal. The brain swelling is also manageable with steroids. I am from the OLD school of nursing and I knew an old doc who would write in his orders...TOT...That stands for Tincture of Time, meaning that time will be the healer. We are praying for you both and your baby.
My hubby is always "drop-kicking" our babies. I keep telling him not to start a step without knowing where his feet are. These babies are very resilient and your BF will never walk the same again. He will develop what we lovingly call "The Yorkie Shuffle". In our house we walk like 90 year olds on walkers..
Please keep us up-dated on Joey's progress.. |
