Whistler Cancelled!

Domino had her appointment with the Neurologist this afternoon and he has changed her medication in order to try and improve her paralysis.  He was fantastic and did a full Neuro examination.  He said there's a 60% chance its a prolapsed disk and not a tumor on the spinal cord and that if it is the disk, she has a 40% chance of making a recovery.  He has advised that we give the medication 2 weeks and make an appointment at the Canine Fitness Centre (you should google it, they offer all sorts of therapies; I didn't even know these sorts of places existed!!) in order for her to get some physiotherapy and and wheelchair.  he is going to make a referral so I shall weight to hear from them, but in the meantime we've had to cancel our plans to go to Whistler (flights and one night in the hotel paid by Nigels company) for Nigels works 'do' as we don't think its fair on Domino or my friend who'd agreed to dog/housesit when she needs such a high level of care and attention.

Obviously we're disappointed, but  Domino is more important and hopefully it won't be long until she is running around again and then maybe we can plan another trip.
