Tang's in trouble

[guidofatherof5]

Therapy has been going the same. Not much change. It's been a see-saw battle. Good for a couple of days then the spasms return and we are back to rolling. Its been 4 days since he ate. I have him sitting on the livingroom floor most of the day. He moved over along one of the baby enclosures. I tossed a nightcrawler over to him and he downed it. Then he downed another. I keep hoping the spasms will just stop and he'll be back more to normal. I realistically understand his injury will take more time as the nerves and muscles reconnect and the healing process continues. If I can keep him eating and drinking I feel he still has a chance.

At least he's got a shot at recovery. On his own, he'd probably have a very hard time making it.

Hey again Steve ... Nerve regeneration will take a LONG time so I expect the day to day observations will become maddening for you ! ... and you are correct in that his body would not be able to sustain the spasms unchecked for very long. His brain would become overwhelmed from the explosive impulses ... akin to a lightening storm in his head, which in turn wears out his body as his brain becomes 'fried' figuratively speaking. You are doing a FANTASTIC job ! Should I ever fall ill or sustain a life threatening injury I could only hope to be in your backyard when it happened : )

best,
marian

With the amount of radixes I'm caring for, not to mention my injured ones. I think I'm going to install one of those pull-a-tab number machine. Then I can have one of those "now serving #" displays outside the back door. That way I can keep some order. I shouldn't complain even if I don't do that. I've hired some of my wise old girls as security. Nothing gets by them and they work for pinkies. The head of Ranch security is Scar. Now, he gets to see what it like working on the other side.
Scar's working for free. I think he's hoping I'll put him back in the Spring breeding program
Little does he know, I never took him out.

Scar is going to love you once he realizes that.

He is one special man. I'm going to get some current photos of him and post them tomorrow.

[k2l3d4]

Can't wait to see them!

He ain't pretty but he's my boy. Photos later.

*UPDATE*
I would say things have leveled out for Tang. He has a lot less spasms but the ones he has are severe. He's drinking with help(taking him to the water dish). He's eating about every 5th day. I'm going to keep working with him in the hope that some normality can return to his life. He's a tough little guy.
