We didn't take any pictures these 2 days as there isn't much improvements on Bianco's condition.
Mt Pleasant have started hydrotherapy yesterday on Bianco for a short while. Initially I was a little concerned as he has never been in a pool before. However, they told me that he wasn't frightened about being in the pool. He managed to waddle a bit using his 2 front legs.. but his hind legs were still...... they also were hoping to see him using his hind legs and they think that perhaps hes still not ready to use them yet.
I have also found ticks on him and been told that its inavoidable since its a pet hospital.. they gave him frontline.. hopefully it will help to control the situation.
Today (June 25), I was told that they will not do hydrotherapy on him today since they applied frontline on him yesterday. At the same time, they didn't want to stress him up too much, in case he rejects the hydrotheraphy sessions. So, hydrotherapy sessions will be done on alternate days instead.
They have also stopped the injecting of medicine and fed him the medicines orally. Bianco is getting to know that each injection will inflict pain and he is trying to snap at them each time they inject him. Since he is eating it orally without much force, I told them to just continue with his oral feeds.
Bianco looked tired today and didn't feel up to doing anything much. We managed to get him standing on fours trying to place his hind legs standing.... his hind legs muscles tightened and he managed to stand up on his hind legs without support for a second or two. We hope that its a good sign..... we'll try to do that with him again tomorrow and will try to take a video/photo on us doing that with him.
Look out for that :)
