Sending prayers for Layla and you Lindsey.

Praying for Layla!

Oh NO Lindsey! Poor little Layla, she's been through so much. I pray it's nothing too serious. Love you kiddo.:love-hug3:

It is a bulging disc. My poor baby. We are doing crate rest and medication. She can't eat solid food, shake, play with toys, anything until it resolves. It may resolve on its own with rest, and if not, she would require another surgery. We can't afford another surgery. My world is crashing.

Just hang on tight Lindsey. Deal with things 5 minutes at a time if you need to. Do not feel bad that you can't afford another surgery, sweetheart! You have done everything humanly possible to help her, but sometimes it's just out of our hands. Heck Lindz, she may just feel lots better in a few days. I know your heart is broken to see her in pain, and I'm so very sorry for the 3 of you. I wish I was closer so I could hold you while you cry...

Prayers sent for Layla. She is such a strong spirit. What a fighter she is.. and I pray she will continue to fight. {HUGS}

Oh, I am so sorry Lindsay! Poor baby. I feel so sorry for her and for you! It must be so hard to see her hurting!

Lindsey I'm so sorry for Layla and you. Praying she is able to overcome this also.

We are doing better today. I was so depressed yesterday and I cried constantly. Scott was really sick with the flu and I felt feverish all night and woke up with the same headache I had last night, probably due to all the crying. It's the whole front of my head down to my sinuses. I decided to stay home from work again. I just took some Ibuprofen for the headache so I hope it eases soon.

This morning I got up early to give Layla her food and medicine and we all went back to bed. We slept until 11! When I got up, Layla was relaxed on the floor, laying on her side for the first time since she started showing neck problems. She was completely relaxed and not trembling anymore. I'm trying to stay positive for her because we will do anything possible to get her better.

That is great news. I do hope she sets herself back to normal.

I'm glad to hear that she is better today. I know you are so relieved. I'm so sorry that you and Scott are not feeling well - I hope everyone feels much better soon.

We are better today. I'm being strong for my baby girl!

We drove in to work and she got a little excited but we were tense too because conditions are terrible. It's been snowing all night and it's still snowing and blowing across the highways, and there was almost zero visibility. We're supposed to get 6 inches today so hopefully we will be able to get home. I'm kicking myself for not bringing Layla's medication, just in case. I guess we could always make our way to the vet hospital to get more if we can't leave the city tonight.

For now she is asleep in her stroller right beside me at my desk. My coworkers know not to excite her. I hope the day goes well.

I've been thinking about Layla. I hope you all were able to get home and that she is doing better!

Sweet little Layla! I am praying so hard for her, you and Scott!

Thank you guys! I know she's feeling a lot better now because she is getting frustrated with being cooped up. 2 days down, 54 to go! :rolleyes:

She can now move her head easily to both sides and it doesn't seem to bother her. I've still been feeding her soft food just in case. She really seems to like her kibble soggy anyway! It's tough to keep a dog still when she is feeling fine. She cried for awhile in her crate yesterday evening but calmed down and fell asleep. She cried in her stroller at work for an hour straight this morning, but now she's fast asleep. Thank goodness it's me watching her and not Scott because he is not able to ignore her cries (unless he's sleeping!). Last night it was me who couldn't ignore them at 3:30 am when she didn't want to be in her crate anymore. Needless to say, I am tired today.
