Hoping all is well with Tink...is she feeling any better, please update when you can.

Tink's Mom · 07-15-2007, 02:09 PM

Tink had a decent night. Another seizure but we're getting used to them now. She slept well and got up with me at 5:00.

So far today she has eaten some yogurt and some of the canned food from the vet. She's sleeping now. So, not a great night but she's doing fine now. She is more alert than yesterday. She's looking around and wants to be out of her crate. So, I have her in her papasan chair again. She really likes that chair.

I'm happy to hear Tink is home and doing better... you are a good mommy

paulapoo · 07-15-2007, 02:21 PM

So glad that she's home with you and eating. Do her seizures last long? I sure hope they go away. Stay strong, sounds like you are taking great care of your baby girl!!!

It seems like they last forever, but I'm guessing its about 2 minutes. The vet thinks they;ll go away in a few months.

ahhh susie that is good to hear I sure hope that those seizures stop soon that would be really scary to deal with and has to hard on her. Deb was so sweet to have a sleep over and help you with her today

AngelWorks · 07-15-2007, 02:57 PM

I'm glad she's finally home with you and things keep moving forward and up!

SophieRose · 07-15-2007, 03:08 PM

Not the best night, but a night together. The chair is probably comfortable to her little body, and imagine she aches all over. Get well soon, little Tinker. Warmly, Deborah and Charlie PS Charlie sends you a woofie kiss on your little mouth.

Tink's Mom · 07-16-2007, 04:55 AM

Tink had a pretty good night. She only woke up for her meds and had only one seizure. This morning she stood up on the bed and promptly fell over.

It was too soft for her to get good footing. I put her on the floor and she stood and took a couple of steps before sitting down.

I'm very happy about that. She is eating pretty well but not alot. We had a tough time last night with her poop but this morning she had another little one and it was better. I'm so glad she is pooping real poops - who would think I would say that!

Well we are off to our vet who is going to board her during the day this week so she has a watchful eye on her while I'm at work.

Thanks everyone for the helpful and encouraging posts.

Gingergirlsmom · 07-16-2007, 05:02 AM

Yaaay, Tink!!!!! Hey, if I had a quarter for everytime I stood in the back yard praaaaaaaaaaying Bernie would poop

....I'm so happy she is doing so well and she seems to be progressing. I know how hard this must be on you to see your baby struggling, but she seems to be making remarkable progress! Hugs to Tink and to you. It sounds like she's going to be in the best possible place today while mommy is at work.

Ozzie'sperson · 07-16-2007, 05:09 AM

Don't worry, Susie. I think most of us know what it's like to be obssessed with dog poop!

Tink's Mom · 07-16-2007, 03:45 PM

I dropped her off at the vet this morning and we both cried. I've never heard her make such pitiful sounds. It broke my heart to leave her. I called at 10:00 and they said she had just had her meds and was sleeping. At noon, she ate ALOT of kibble - 10 pieces. I sent some more broth today and she drank some of that and ate some yogurt too - about a tablespoon. So I think she did very well.

She was sitting up in her crate when I got there at 5:00. She looked a little stressed, but she was moving and chewing on her frog.

We're home now and she's laying in her chair. she had her meds a little while ago and drank some water and ate some yogurt and the rice and potatoes. I think it's going to be a good evening.

paulapoo · 07-16-2007, 03:51 PM

Ooh, look at your baby getting a little stronger every day!!! Truly you are dealing with "baby steps". So glad she seems to be eating well and getting a little stronger. I'm thinking about you and Tink. When you get up through the nite to give her her meds, think about all of us at YT, supporting you and your love and devotion to your baby. I'm so glad she's getting stronger.

Morkie4 · 07-16-2007, 04:50 PM

Well sounds like our little TINK is coming along pretty good!!! YAY.........I'm so relieved that she is doing better. She was pretty down there for a while so I am sure it will take a little bit for her to regain her strength, vim and vigor. I'm just glad she is eating and pooping!!!! She has come a long way and it's been a rough trip on both of you! Just want you to know I am thinking of you and Tink!
