Broken back?

[Spinner]

Kathryn,

Thanks for keeping us up to date on Vree's progress! So glad the healing continues.

[Greywings]

Wow the news is great and who knew how well things would be looking right now after such a serious injury. Good work and glad to hear the clinic is owning their error. Will keep sending out those healing thoughts.

[pearllyn]

So good to hear Vree is doing much better Kathryn, thanks for keeping us updated. Hope he continues to improve.

Thanks for the pictures and great update! If Vree is miffed, that has to mean the healing is continuing!!! Hooray!!!

[bandits_mom08]

Wow, I just read about the accident. It is great that he is doing so much better already! My thoughts and prayers for a full recovery.

What a cute photo photo. :-)

 

It is wonderful to hear that leg and talon operation are starting to take place. I wish the best to you both and hope that the health will return so you can indeed have vree perching on your hand once again.

 

Thank you for keeping this updated.

We are so sorry to hear about your poor baby...I wish we could take his pain away:( (from both of you). You are doing so good with him. Our prayers are with you!

It really means a lot to me how many of you have been keeping up with me and Vree as he continues to heal. He was very pleased when I got the Harrison's pellets in as he seems to enjoy those much more then his old ones! I am trying to let him spend more time out of his tub when possible as he is calmer on my lap on a towel sometimes then in his tub. I am using dish towels to line his tub and he is really enjoying tearing holes in them but I am happy he feels up to destroying anything! lol

 

He definitely has more control over his eliminating and more awareness of it in the past week or so. He is not getting nearly as messy under his tail as he is able to eliminate and then move away from it. Just after the accident he would just lay there and eliminate, today he was actually swishing his tail before eliminating so I was able to lift him just a bit so he didn't get anything on his feathers and I really think he appreciated that! He is spending more time preening and fussy with his feathers so I take those to be good signs as well

 

Thank you all again for caring so much about my little Vree!

[bandits_mom08]

Thanks for the update. That is so awsome that he is doing so much better. Glad to hear he is wanting to chewthings up. I would take that as a good sign.

 

If you have a Walmart near they have very cheap towels that Vree could chew up and there would be no

 

Glad to hear he is doing well!

[Greywings]

Progress that you can see-wonderful. Keeping you both in my thoughts.

[ramsabi]

Kathryn, I have no doubt that your love, care and dedication are the cornerstones of Vree's recovery.

 

All good thoughts and prayers continue to flow your way.

Glad to hear he is swishing his tail! That must be a good sign, isn't it? He'd need to use his back to create the movement, I'd think?

[katana600]

I am glad that you are able to spend the time with Vree and comfort him during his ordeal. It must be really hard on you but the small triumphs like lifting him so he can keep himself clean and carrying him around with you show your kindness and spirit. I hope he continues to improve and has a full recovery. Bless you and Vree.

Hi Everyone! Thought I would give you an update on Vree. Monday will be 4 weeks since his accident and I feel he is really doing well. He is very happy and has adapted will to not being able to stand. He will roll himself over to preen his feathers and his feet. Lately when I set him down next to me he gets rather mad and insists on moving his way over to me so he can be on my lap He really is his happy normal self just without being able to stand. I thought I would share this picture of him

 

 

He likes to lay on my chest when I am reading so I have put my book down and give him scritches!

 

I am taking him to the vet monday for a check up so hopefully we'll get more news then!

[JillyBeanz]

Great to hear an update Kathryn - and what a lovely photograph of Vree too. Hope the vet has some good news for you both

[Greywings]

Thank you so much for the update, it means a lot that his attitude is so good. Looking forward to the Vet ck update next week. Progress sounds good for you both.

[danmcq]

How sweet and what a trooper with a positive attitude Vree has.

 

Even if handicapped she is enjoying her life and your providing wonderful loving care. :-)

 

Karma to you.

[Luvparrots]

I'm glad Vree seems to be calm and happy and well-adjusted. I pray that the vet will have good news for you and that Vree will be up and walking/flying soon.

[pearllyn]

Aah Kathryn, Vree is such a gorgeous bird! Glad to hear he has his poop wiggle back - that has to be a good sign. Good to hear from you. Do keep us posted. x

[ranaz]

All the best, I hope he'll be standing up soon

[Xtreme575]

He is gorgeous, it's amazing how he has adapted to continue preening! I sure hope he is up on his own soon!

[judygram]

What a little trouper Vree is and that is good news that he is preening himself, hopefully he will be as good as new real soon, keep us updated on his progress.

[she]

Good luck at the vets on Monday. I will check in to see how it goes.

[KdK]

Thank you all so much I will be sure to update tomorrow after our vet visit, but I thought I would share a picture of Vree cleaning his foot tonight! He can very easily roll himself on to his back and then back over again and seems to find laying on his back comfortable. I am going to mention this to the vet tomorrow to make sure it okay though but he does look so cute!

 

[danmcq]

What an adorable photo. It is good to hear that Vree is taking this in stride and carrying on as well as can be expected.

 

Looking forward to hearing what the vet has to say..

 

Thanks for updating this consistently. :-)
