Oh my Carolyn..really know that we here aresending lil Tucker all the strength and hope we can right now. I knowhow you feel, the same thing happened to Jade when we were gettingready to leave Taiwan! I had to take her to the vet a few times, andbelieve me I didnt think she was going to make it. Finally,afterI had syringed baby food into her mouth 3 times a day(prunes, peas, carrots), and at the same time syringed her withwater-she pulled through.

My poor girl, I know how I cried when I thought I would lose her..soplease be strong, Tucker is a fighter and has the best mom going. Welove you all there Auntie

Oh poor dear Tucker! So sorry you two are having to deal with this.

My service provider has been down and this is what I missed.My heart was in my throat the whole time reading this post.It brought tears to my eyes...it amazes me how worried one can get overa bunny they've never had the joy of meeting. All I couldthink was what you must be going through and whata wreckI'dbeif it was Peabody! I'll be keepingyou both in my thoughts and prayers. He sure is afighter....he'll pull through!!! Stay strong andf take careof yourself too....give Tucker an extra hug from me as well.

How's Tucker doing this morning?? Isure hope there are signs of improvement!! Waiting is thehardest part! Hang in there!! I don't know aboutthe rest of you on this forum, but I've felt the need to give FuzzButtand Biscuit EXTRA attention this week!!

 

[Carolyn]

Thank you all so much for your beautiful sentiments and comments. It means more than I can say.

This waiting is just horrible!! I cannot get you two out of my mind and am still sending my thoughts/prayers your way.

*hugs*

 

[Lissa]

I wish there was something I could do.

Hang tough, Carolyn! Don't give up onhim and "make him take his medicine" no matter how he hatesit. If he's maintaining weight and gums look good, it is notover, yet. Rabbits do work themselves out of this.

Hang in there Carolyn! Our rabbits arejust like our children and we know it's hard to watch both children andbunnies when they are sick and you're doing everything you can to helpthem. Know that you're doing everything you can!

I talked Baby about it last night and she seemed tounderstand. She said she's sending bunny prayerstoo. Then I gave her a kiss on the nose and an extratreat. I'll be checking periodically through the day.

 

[StickyBird]

Would've posted last night... stupid browser messed up... grr.

Anyway, I agree, waiting is really toughto do. But Buck's right; it's not over yet. I knowyou two can pull through this, and right now we're just at the darknessbefore the dawn. Just do your best to keep a positiveattitude, which I know, is one of the most difficult things todo. Maybe if you act happy, then Tucker'll feel happiertoo.

And of course we are all pulling for you and Tucks Carolyn!

He isnt going to give up as long as you have hope so make sure to let him know you are still fighting with him!

 

[m.e.]

I'm stuck in classes all day, but I'll surely be thinking of you. Praying for strength for both Tucker and you.

I'm hoping you areable to stay home from work this afternoon and be with him. I know thatwill make both of you feel more comfortable. I can't see that you wouldbe able to accomplish much at work anyway. I think you two will pullstrength from each other if you are near each other. Carolyn, staystrong. He can still pull through this. Remember animals can feel yourfear. Try to stay optimistic. I love you girl. Pets to Tucker, even ifhe hates people right now. :?

 

[Lissa]

Was there anything that the Vet could do to clear his blockage? How is his attitude?

 

[Carolyn]

I can't be home and it's killingme! Ihate it!! Tucker's probably relieved to see me walk out thedoor so that I won't be bothering him. Luckily the people atwork are being as kind and gentle as you all are. I'm justreally worried about the amount of sugar in his system at thispoint. Will get yogurt and give him some of that with ispapaya pill tonight.

I'm trying to be positive, but I feel like I'm slipping now.I don't see how he can continue to live without his systemmoving. He's amazing me.

Love you too.

-Carolyn

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

Didn't I readsomething about pumpkin too? Is there less sugar in it and will ithelp? I can see your concern about the sugar. From what I understand(which is relatively little) sugar tends to slow down the system? Itwould seem like that would work against you. Your concern seems wellplaced but as you said, he earlier, he has to have nutrition. You knowhim, I'm sure if anyone would be able to tell what it is that he wouldneed it would be you. The vet can only help to a certain extent. Theycan arm you with medical info but from there on out you are asqualified as they are. I believe you told me something along thoselines regarding myself not too long ago....

 

[MyBabyBunnies]

Oh Carolyn.

*Big hug.*

I'm praying for your little man to pull through. He's a fighter andhe's got the best bunny mommy in the world. Do your best Carolyn andhave the satisfaction that no matter what happens, you tried yourhardest.

I've been in school all morning but I can't concentrate on it, I keepthinking of poor Tucker and Carolyn, Fauna of course, too.I'll keep praying for the little guy. Keep up the good workand dedication Carolyn.

 

[BunnyMommy]

I really don't know what to say. I'm sodistressed about this. I'm just being positive though andbelieving that he's going to pull through this.

You have been the BEST bunny mommy, Carolyn, and I just have to believethat all of the love, time, energy, and effort that you've put intoTucks is going to pay off during this difficult time.

How is his attitude? Does he at least seem calm or is he moping and bundled in pain?

That picture is just so sweet ... I just want to cry. We alllove our sweet precious Tucks and just want him to be allright.
