Una is still here!

Against all the odds, my little miracle girl is still here! Even I know that she shouldn't be - she was weak and floppy yesterday and kept resting her head between her paws and mum was very close to making what she calls, a Big Decision for her. Today, she has surprised us all - and she is actually sitting rather than flopped so the nursing is continuing.

I'll write more later - mum is feeling pretty rough today after another night of nursing so I'm letting her head back to her nest-box for a few hours to regain her strength. Poor mum - she's exhausted!

As for me, I'm looking lovingly and proudly towards my Una while Inga, who is now nibbling and drinking a little by herself, sits triumphantly in the fluffy nest she built overnight.

Thank you to everybunny for all your vibes - and please keep them coming because they, or something, are helping my little girl.

Mum says she's never known such a fighting spirit!

4pm Update:

After all the stress and upset of yesterday everybunny here, with the exception of myself, is feeling thoroughly drained and mum's so exhausted after the last 10 days that she's given up with all she meant to do and flopped back into her nestbox (she apologises to anyone expecting an email or an order to be sent today - she's knackered!). She's given my Una some medication and fluids (thank you, Moab) and apart from that, I've hardly seen her.

However, there is no need for words today because this video clip says it all.

So, over to YouTube for today's update:



Who ever could have possibly anticipated such a turnaround?!

But... I'm not going to get too excited this time - my little girl could relapse again but I just had to share my joy after such a sad day yesterday.

6.30pm Update:

I've just noticed that 71 people have viewed the video clip of my little girl in less than 2.5 hours. I am so flattered that so many people have taken such an interest in my famous little daughter. Thank you everybunny/human.

I am so relieved that Una seems to be picking up a bit.
I haven't been in touch with you for a while, but I do visit your site, and keep up to date.
George and I have both been routing for Una.
Sending lots of love and healing vibes.
Love Sharon and a bunny lick from George xx

If love and vibes could move mountains, you would be sitting pretty high up by now.

What a little fighter. Keep it up Una and Inga, the Bridge isn't ready for a bunny supermodel yet.

Sending you all our love and healing vibes.

Yeah! Way to go Una! But I'm not going to get too happy just yet, in case we jinxed it last time. It is such a relief seeing her look so much brighter though - long may it continue! x

Just saw the update - keep up the great Werk, Una! We're all hoping you recover soon - we know it will be a long haul, but you're such a brave bun! And so is Inga - keep up the good werk, girl!

Sending bunny snuggles and wishes and everything's crossed for the Twins!

Way to go kit! Keep up the healing and eating and scratching and snoozing and eating etc etc! We look forward to your first solid poop. The video gives us real hope you will pull through - don't ever ever give up.

love 'n' licks

On the subject of solid poop - my Inga produced her first caecotroph today and this evening has had some Russel Rabbit mix, her first since Easter Sunday.

As for my Una, she had more diarrhoea last night and has produced some gunky, smelly mucus which isn't pleasant so we're all looking forward to her first solid poop here, too.

She's had a syringe-feed with more Critical Care and AviPro (where would we be without these valuable potions...) and is now nibbling on some Sunny Greens Summer Garden Dandelion Hay. She's feeding very selectively but mum says she can have whatever she fancies and the more fibre she gets the better for her tummy. I've been allowed to go shopping to buy her some more. I've ordered 12 bags...

Just twelve bags! I thought a talented shopper like you would have done better than that.

Fear not - I'm only just getting started!

I've just ordered more medication for my Una and Inga and there's a HUGE order of AviPro, Critical Care and Recovery arriving tomorrow or Thursday. Now, I might get into a bit of touble over the quantities I've bought there....

This is great news! We are so pleased about Una feeling a bit better and really hope it will continue. We are all thinking about you guys a lot and check the website regularly for updates.

On a more positive note, Daddy just showed me the clip of Inga dropping her ball. That was so cute, but then us bunnies just are. :-)

Only just found your journal through a video on youtube, but your girls have won my heart!

Keep fighting, many times I've refused to give up on bunnies even the vets weren't hopeful for, and had them pull through to go on for many years.
