Sirocco_Nikki Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 If only I enjoyed adult beverages, now would be a good time to have a few She looks wonderful. I especially enjoyed the clip of her grazing. As another one who doesn't care for adult beverages, I highly recommend some dark chocolate, a mug of tea and a long bubble bath. Please take care of yourselves too.

Meandmy Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Just checking in for my daily Darcy update. I got to watch her video and, I must admit, I got a bit teary These dogs never cease to amaze me with their resilience. I hope things continue to go well for you all.

Bevd Posted October 22, 2007 Author Share Posted October 22, 2007 That was coming back from bye bye Patti And yes, a day makes a very big difference! You should see the bruising today - or rather lack of it. I'll try to get a pic later.

Bevd Posted October 22, 2007 Author Share Posted October 22, 2007 (edited) Sorry for the delay! I needed to wait for Marc to do the video's because it's toooo technical for meeeee. I can do pics but that's it So, today is day 6 post amp. I can't say that today has been fantastic, not has it been terrible. It's just....been. I have to say though that today as I watched her laying on her side, awake but just doing nothing at all, I did wonder whether we'd made the right choice. I hope she gets some time after her recovery where she can run and play and feel happy again. I'd hate to have put her through all this and for all her remaining times to be like they are at the moment. There was one good moment during the middle of the day when she got up to get her share of pork sandwich from Marc, but the hassle of getting up, standing up and going to Marc meant that she didn't have any energy/co-ordination to actually eat the titbit when she stood there so she went back to bed and Marc gave it to her there. The video clip IS HERE. (I like this clip because it shows how the other dogs are behaving around her) She had a couple of garden visits (initiated by us) and then this afternoon, we made her go for a walk, as per yesterdays routine. First, some piccies of her on her walk. But once again, no walking took place during the pics Hopefully, you'll be able to see just how little bruising is left now. It's amazing! And then there is the video clip. I have to say that the funniest bit is of Marc, towards the end CLICK HERE FOR CLIP Edited October 22, 2007 by Bevd Quote Deerhounds Darcy, Duffy, Grace & Wellington, Mutts Sprout & Buddy, Lurchers Ned & Jake plus Ella the Westie + cats.

Guest Tenderhearts Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Oh Darcy, you precious hairy girl! :wub: Bev, I've had no experience with amputees in my house, but I can't help think that surely they have good and bad days like humans do, especially early on. This is such a huge adjustment for her, and I can't help but believe she's going to perk up more as she heals up and adjusts to being a tripod. Continuing prayers for my favorite hairy girl (Darcy, not you, Bev, although you're in my prayers too ) :hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xan Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Just catching back up. Darcy looks great! I'm really hearing your doubts about whether this was the right choice.

Greytlady94 Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Darcy, you are so beautiful and so brave. I hope I get the chance to kiss your fuzzy nose.
