It's been four days since she broke her back..
Shaking from head to toe
Owner/ I don't know what caused it
She didn't get hit or fall, but suddenly..
A medical mystery
Owner/ Doesn't have any strength in her legs.. They flip over
Hard to get her to stand
Our Gongjoo
Gongjoo, come here~
Can't do what she used to do
What happened to you?
Owner/ Because mother was sick
I sent the dog to my friend's place
Just 3 days prior to the injury
I visited my friend's place to play with the dog
Gongjoo use to be cheery and energetic..
Friend who looked after Gongjoo/ I came back from work
And found her limp like a mollusk
Gongjoo!
Gongjoo was found with a broken neck
The guilt, shock, and trauma..
Gongjoo must be in so much pain..
Owner/ I hope it gets fixed soon
Vet/ She's in serious condition
We have to get it checked out..
(X-ray)
Vet/ First off, I'm going to see what's wrong with her bone structure
I don't see any bone relating to a fracture
After an in-depth examination
Vet/ It could be myelitis
Like how a facial paralysis (Bell's palsy) can happen overnight
The same can happen to dogs
Don't lose hope, and let's try
I'm counting on you, doc
To stimulate the nerves
Conducts acupuncture
The leg responds
Oh
The rehabilitation continues
After a week,
Owner/ Gongjoo, come here~~
She was unable to stand or walk
And didn't even have the strength to smell.
She's gotten a lot better
A day will come when she can run again..?
Get better, Gongjoo..!
