Well.....where to start this morning. It's saturday. 3, almost 4 weeks after this whole frustrating incident with Henry began. I've just come downstairs to have breakfast and let the buns out for an hour into the living room. Lillian has a nose rub and then this brown blur zooms behind the buns sleeping area and flashes past me. This zoomy tigger then speeds off in the direction of the hallway door which is his route into the living room (Lillian takes the short cut through the big double patio doors).
Henry goes into the living room and I'm able to make a proper observation of his stance. It is evidently clear that he is no longer holding the paw up and bent. It IS planted firmly down. And whilst I'm still struggling to comprehend if I am really seeing this, he's off - and when I say off, I mean full flight 100mph zoomies. There's high jumping binkies, mid air twists and complete speed up and down the living room. Lillian joins him - watching his mid air binkey so she tries to copy him. What a sight. Henry leaps over Lillian as she sits in front of me here, wondering what the hell is happening, and henry is just flying round the living room.
His paw shape is much more positive, it pairs up with his good paw and his behaviour this morning is just about as contrasting as you could possibly imagine from 4 weeks ago.
The hard bit for me is that Henry wants to 'fly' and obviously run outside but that's strictly out of bounds - and that will frustrate him. I need this phase of recovery to continue upwards and forwards and as difficult as that is going to be for Henry, that will mean no outside. Clearly something has changed - and certainly appears to hav accelerated in the last few days. Be that a natural healing progress or one that has been supported by the medication and the huge support he has received from your all who have followed.
I'll update again tomorrow and see if I can get my video camera ready tomorrow morning and post the madness of this bunny who is still, even now, tearing round the floor.
