Yea Gabby!
 
Wow I really had to read that post slowly and was waiting for some horrible outcome. But, yea Gabby, for potty-ing on mommy! Baby steps!

TxVicki 02-21-2011 12:13 PM
That is wonderful that she has tone in her rear end and that she piddled on you. (LOL) Sounds like she is progressing really well.
I sure hope eye will get better.
Prayers still continue for Gabby.

I took her to the crate in my office where she spends her days and gave her her breakfast. When I went back to pick up her bowl and get her for her morning meds I found little streaks of poop and bright red blood. I picked her up and she was trying to pass more stool. I took her in the bathroom to help her finish and to wash her little tush and it was so red and irritated. :( I called my vet and took her in worrying that she might have an anal gland problem...or even a bit of a tear somewhere. On exam, my vet found Gabby to have quite a bit of tone in her rectum....just wonderful news!! She is just irritated and is to have animax applied 3 times/day. Today was the first time she has passed urine on her own...even though it was not continent....and now she has tone in her rectum. Sooooo...she is getting feelings and use back!!! :) I am SO excited! First time I have ever wanted a pup to pee and poop all over me. :p

She also had an appointment with the opthamologist....her eye has a bit more pressure in it. He still feels that it will "destruct" on its own. He added a new eye drop to try and get the pressure down. She now does not go back again for three weeks.
Linda,

When I first began to read your post, I literally stopped breathing.

As I read further, I let out my breath and thanked God!!!

You have truly brought this little one along to good health.

She is healing. YT prayers work, so we'll keep praying she'll recover completely. Praying her eye will get better.

Lisa and Pic 02-21-2011 05:33 PM
Sounds like things are a little better today for the sweet girl.

Right now, I am looking at her darling picture next to my computer and sending positive thoughts for continuing improvement. Go Gabby Go!

MaddiesMommie 02-21-2011 05:40 PM
*sigh* Way to go little girl!
Gotta love those piddles and poos on the road to recovery. :)

lexipoo 02-21-2011 05:42 PM
All our thoughts and prayers are with you Linda and little Gabby..always love hearing about her and how well she is doing. I am so happy she has you...what a precious little one and I too have her picture with me and Lexi and I look at all the time and send her positive thoughts and prayers :D

Gabby is having a grand ole time making me change my clothes! haha ... I use a pad now to carry her outside, but somehow I still get wet.

A little while ago she started barking at me and trying her darndest to push her little butt up! She had lots of twitching going on in her lower torso. I let her try for a bit and then I picked her up. She was trying to have a BM!!! So, I took her outside to go. There is NO doubt that she is regaining some feeling and movement! Last night I squeezed her little foot (left side which is the strongest) and she jerked her leg! This is all SO wonderful to watch!

ladyjane 02-23-2011 02:02 PM
Ohhh and she went to the opthamologist yesterday. He said to keep giving her the eye drops in both eyes...and he added one other one for her left eye. She is to return there in three weeks.

Lolasmom1211 02-23-2011 02:23 PM
Sweet, sweet Gabby! It sounds like she is progressing wonderfully. I'm so glad that we have such pretty weather and that you are able to take her out to enjoy it! I hope she continues to keep making progress! How is the rest of your crew?

Everyone is great, thanks! Matty went to GCVS yesterday and they were as surprised as I am by his recovery. He goes back in 6 weeks and they will xray him at that time. The hard part now is keeping him from running all over. I hate to crate him....and he really does listen fairly well when we all go out. I think he understands. He is a good boy :)

Bet you are getting some use out of your washer and dryer. ;) Glad she is making improvements day-by-day.

You have had your hands full with all these surgeries. So glad things are going well with the pups. Bless you for all your work.

Linda,

I have to say, this is a "feel good" story, if there ever was one.

Gabby is really one determined little girl!

I know you hear this all the time, but I really don't know how you do it all. Your energy level must be unbelievable...

Buster Brown 02-23-2011 05:03 PM
I was catching up on Gabby and I am so excited to hear about her regaining feeling so soon. I went from a smile to a laugh at your comments. Go gabby!!! It is wonderful news and so is the news about Matty. Bless you Linda and your house of kindness.

I can't even imagine. I know how emotional it is for me to read. I sit here grinning like a fool when I read about her.:D

yorkieusa 02-23-2011 07:21 PM
It's so good to read about Gabby being spunky and barking at you. She was trying to tell you!:D I hope and pray she'll continue to improve. I really believe she will. Bless her little heart. She certainly has had some battles in her little life. I really hope her eye can be saved, too. It seems as though she doesn't want to wait 30 days to get up and get moving.

TxVicki 02-26-2011 11:32 AM
Was just checking for any updates on Gabby?

Hope she is doing well.

lexipoo 02-26-2011 11:38 AM
Always happy to hear updates on little Gabby...we are all so proud of her. She sure has captured all of our hearts. Give her hugs from Lexi & I...keeping her and you in our prayers. I can't help but smile when I think of her. You are so incredible Cathy...truly a blessing :D

ladyjane 02-26-2011 12:27 PM
Gabby is doing well. She tried to get up and walk out of her crate towards me today when I opened it to take her out. She is still not totally back to where she was before surgery, but I believe I see small improvements each day.
She will be going to the neurologist on Monday to get her sutures removed. I am looking forward to seeing what the neurologist sees in her neuro check.

Gabby is such a fighter, and she now has something to really be excited about. She is feeling unconditional love from her mom, and it has given her the will to get better. Though I know you don't expect the thanks, she is probably feeling so grateful to you for your love, devotion, and compassion. I am overjoyed every time I read your posts and hear that she is improving each day.

Oh, see how much she loves you!

I am looking forward to hearing what the Neuro see's in her check up as well.

MaddiesMommie 02-26-2011 02:47 PM
I will be thinking about Gabby and praying the neuro sees good things Monday. :)

margaritaville 02-26-2011 02:56 PM
Praying for good news come Monday.

jacquelinebabco 02-26-2011 03:09 PM
Continued prayers for you and Gabby. I look at her picture and just smile!

That makes two of us...I will continue to pray and will touch base with you on Monday.

Ditto here and will be checking in tomorrow to see how the appointment goes with sweet Gabby.

Gabby had her sutures out today. All of the things I have been seeing are reflexes and not the signs I had hoped they were. :( They said that it is too early to give up and that they expected it might be at least 30 days; but it is so hard not to be discouraged. She is a trooper...she got herself up and tried to walk to me when the vet put her down. She is very strong in her front limbs and can do that for a few steps...she lifts her little butt and carries herself with her front part of her body. We stopped off for a beauty appointment for her :) She looks like a little doll. :) Here is a pic I took in the car with my cell phone. I will get some more pics of her soon and post them.

Ahhh, don't get too discouraged. These doctors base everything they say on medical science and forget about the power of prayer and sheer will! She looks like a little doll. What big, beautiful eyes she has! Keeping her in our prayers!
