Art, Yoga, and Love
A short post to say that I’m back from New York. I have a large number of photos to weed through and edit. I just thought I’d give you a taste with one photo above, which was taken in the stairwell of my son’s apartment. I didn’t exactly do the typical New York tour. The point of my trip to the big apple was to spend time with my son and that part, I enjoyed a great deal.
Unfortunately, I came home to one very sick Australian Australorp chick. She appears to have crookneck. I think she may have injured herself during a loud thunderstorm. This photo is blurry but she’s the one on the far left, taken before the injury.
Crookneck is a brain injury. Her neck is bent into her chest so she can’t eat or drink and she walks backwards. From what I’ve read, if I give her food and water by hand and give her prednisone to take down any brain swelling, she may make it, but it will be a tough haul to get her through this. Watching her struggle is a real heartbreaker.
So I’m running to the vet this morning for medication and hoping I can pull her through. Right now, I have to try and give her more food and water.
I hope to be back soon.
So sorry about your little chick…it is so difficult dealing with these things. Maybe she will pull through though. Can’t wait to see your New York photos. I love that place!
I’m so sorry ’bout your little feather fluff. Hopefully it’s pull through. I’m prayin’!
It’s something that happens when ya own critters. We have a sayin’ ’round here. If ya have ’em no matter how hard ya try your gonna lose some. It’s hard but Mama said like ain’t always easy.
I hope you had a grand time with Son and I can’t wait to see your pictures!
