Hellos, Everybunny!
Just a quick update to wish everybun a hoppy and safe holiday.
On M*nd*y, the v. e. t. at Avian and Animal Hospital discovered that Charlie has what looks like a small hernia in the making in the lower part of her abdomen, close to where she was spayed. That was one suspected cause of her intermittent bouts of stasis.
Tuesday, buntie Susan took Charlie to see Dr. Teed at Keystone Animal Hospital in Bradenton. Dr. Teed took an x-ray and discovered that Charlie might be passing a kidney stone or at least some crystals. And that's the best candidate for explaining that intermittent stasis. However, Dr. Teed was not concerned about that 2 cm possible hernia spot and did not recommend another surgery. At least not right away, considering Charlie struggled to recover from the last one.
So, we're monitoring Charlie very closely, giving stronger pain medicine to facilitate easier passage of the stones. She's doing very well at the moment, has a good appetite, and is very active.
But now our salaaad days are pretty much over. Espresso, the murderizing, can haz greens. Charlie and I will have to make do with homemade treats from recovery food. Of course, there are bunnana slices and blueberries in them, but still.
My hoomin is trying to process all that. At this point, we're grateful just to have days and days with Charlie. And days with yours truly, and even with the murderizer.
Hugs to everybun out there, and we'll keep you posted!
