its REAL bad news. Dr Chan told me that it seems Pearl's condition hasn't gotten better but is worse cos her tilt is more pronounced n she's flipping around a lot. She said from Thurs til now,she was expecting some sign of improvement with the medicine if there should b ANY chance of recovery but if its not improvingbut worsening,its a bad sign. Pearl is goin to need a miracle to recover from this. She also told me if the tilt gets really bad then the kindest thing to do is to put Pearl to sleep.. cos when the head tilt gets really bad,she will b unable to balance herself,she won't b able to eat n she won't b able to do a ot of things..

After that,i was staying around to wait for Clover(whom i met at clinic) and decided to talk to DR Ling about Pearl.she told me on Thurs she had already discussed with Dr Chan about PeArl and this morning as well..she said they have covered every angle of treatment possible n there isnt anything much to b done anymore..she looked at me as i control al my tears n said sorry.

Now can only try to make Pearl as comfortable as possible n pray for a miracle for my poor lil baby girl. whats really strange is that her appetite seems better now...saw her goini to the other side of the cage to get hay..ate quite a bit n then actually started eating the pellets i left there for a couple of day already (was untouched)..also drinkin a lot of water everyday. I think she's very brave,fiesty lil warrior girl....going to pray for her everyday now n hope she gets well soon..

Am very sad as i type this n crying.............

This morning woke up to see Pearl with head tilt. Her head is slanted to one side n she's jerking her head periodically.Her eyes are lolling around n when i picked her up out of the cage,i got an even bigger shock.She couldnt walk properly n is stumbling to one side tho she keep stretching her head up to look up....make her look as if her head is going to snap off.

I panick n jus kept crying. I left my hp with my fren the previous night so couldnt remember ANY numbers of my friends to call..only remembered Haniman's number n he was at work.Called up Namly,forgot they are closed on Thurs. Nonetheless,i called emergency line n left my house number. It was like the longest wait. Finally, Dr Chan called me n told me that Dr Ling is off n asked me to bring Pearl in ASAP. I whisked Pearl off in the carrier.....only to hop into a cab where the STUPID uncle is SUPER blur n is worse in road directions than me.

After examination,Pearl's ears were seen to have a ot of wax n black flecks,cause was not known.could b mites,infection. Head tilt COULD also b caused by trauma to the head(oh dear,i hope it's not cos i put the hammies cages on top of her cage).Dr Chan administered dex,baytril,revolution small,Pred n penacur to her. These are to kill any mites,worms n also cure any infection..cos head tilt is a manifestation of other problems in her..so to sure head tilt HAVE to cure whatever it was caused it in the first place.

Now am given penacur,Pred,Baytril to feed to her daily.. also given Critical Care to feed to her in the case she doesnt eat anything.Cleaned her cage when i came back,took out all the toys n put in a flat food bowl,lowered her water bottle so as to make it all more assessible for her. She's jus sitting quietly in a corner n she was always like that so i dun know if she's feelin ok.Dr Chan said that she is not feeling any pain as for head tilt rabbits....but is dizzy n confused.. at least now she stopped her jerking motions. jus cut some carrots n vegs into tiny pieces n left in front of her but she isnt eating.. wil feed her the critical care at 3pm if she stil doent eat by then...

its so sad n so shocking.a lot of emotional distress for me. Cos i have never heard of any cases where bunnies survive head tilt n was reading on this website that head tilt jus comes suddenly,without any warning. Moreover,the site also states thateven if they do survive, the recovery path is long n tedious.. and 99% of them suffers a relapse.

why must this happen to her? i cant eat n i cant sleep..i cant even think properly anymore

Pearl is not pregnant. No babies. No hurry tho. :)

no nest...no signs..maybe she really isn't pregnant.:(

about a week and Pearl will be due! now getting a bit paranoid n wondering if she really is pregnant or just getting fat? too bad i am not too good at feeling for babies n besides,she HATES it when i touch her anywhere else other than her head.

gonna get a few hammies soon n put their cage on Pearl's cgae,hope she doesn't mind!~heehee

Smokey is already frantically building her nest and looks like a very good one cos there is NOTHING left outside the nestbox..she has taken everything in. A bit too early tho because she is due only around 29th August earliest.

Pearl's dirty backside is back again..she started biting on the bathroom mat n dragging everything aound the cage so i decided to just take most of it out n the dirty backside is back again! SIGH. the lil girl is getting to b so fat...or maybe it is the babies!

Hope everything goes well. hee~

forgot to blog...all the babies died. i think i have never cried so much in my entire life. took a 30 sec clip of the last baby on its last night after it was jus fed,seeing the clip always bring tears to my eyes,.....it was soooo sweet. happily snuggling up in my palm after feeding n licking itself..

i wish things had turned out differently..i wish they were still here...i wish i knew what i did wrongly...i wish i could tell them how much i miss them...how much i wanna see them grow uo,open their eyes to see this world..i wanna have a photo album for them..with pics taken every other day.. i wish this had materialised.. i wish,i wish....

went to pet safari today to get calf mana,was told that if i add to lactating does feed will improve the chances of them wanting to nurse cos produce a lot of milk n is achy for the doe...

i really do hope Pearl will b fine giving birth..im so scared something happens to her.She is SOOO important to me,so precious. And so small,so perfect,maybe im paranoid but im hoping she won't die of difficult birth or something.TOUCH WOOD!

i am praying hard..till now i still get images of me feeding the babies n them suckling hard on the dropper,sucking on my palm..sleeping in my palm when im driftiing in n out of sleep.i dun think i will be able to handle it if Pearl dies too..

oh gosh,i am so pessismistic. but i guess i do have a reason to be.
