:joy: It is so wonderful to see her eating watermelon with such enthusiasm!


I agree :)

She's getting to be more like herself ..she was down in the kitchen gettting baby food with me ..and was running around like she would have normal done, and slipped and fell 3 .5 feet? :wallbang:..but landed on all fours and kept going :giggle:
 
Update Update Update:

Got up this morining ...to find momma dragging her blankey into her cube :dance: (I have not seen her do this since the event)
She also devoured 3 sppons full of babyfood mixed with powdered blocks and olivr oil & also some ensure :joy:

AND she climbed out of the cage door !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :dance: :dance: :dance:

Sat Jan 22 - Nothing Till Tonight


So 4 days so far.

I would say give her another day and then start weaning her off the pred...start by skipping a day for about 4 days, then reducing the dosage to half on those Pred days...watch for regression, but I doubt you will see it, she's classic stroke recovery and they need the pred to take the pressure off the brain at first to help them recover. With PT it is pred for the rest of their life.
 
Sounds good.

So just so I have this straight:

Jan 22 (today) - Pred 0.28
Jan 23 - none
Jan 24 - Pred 0.28
Jan 25 - non
Jan 26 - Pred 0.28
jan 27 - none
Jan 28 - 0.14
Jan 29 - none
Jan 30 - 0.14
Jan 31 - none


and keep giving baytrili through all of this? 0.22 once a day?

Looks right. I would keep giving the baytril just in case you have to resume the Pred, and then its already at a constant level in her blood stream. I would also give the last .14 cc dose on Feb. 1st.
 
This is great news!!! I am so happy for the both of you! :dance: I love coming to the shack to such good news!!! You definitely are a great Momma :thumbup:
