My thought's
It was a lovely sunday today,the sun was shining again,I took Jack outside today for a little while but when he's out he moves around to much and i'm scared he's gonna hurt himself,i know it does wear him out...so if i do take him out it can only be for a little while,cause yesterday when i took him out i think he got carried away and when we went inside he couldn't move very well until he rested and then he could move again...i guess this is just expected of him cause of the way his spine is.
Going through this must be hard for him...getting used to a new way of living...not being able to do the thing's he normally used to do...i guess the hardest thing for him is not being able to go down just two steps out to the back yard....his life has changed.
It's hard for me....boy is it hard!...the hardest part is going to be the day that Jack stop's hopping altogether...i know that it's going to happen eventually and it's going to break my heart completely....it's breaking for him already.
I think to myself how am i going to get through this,but i guess it's just one of those thing's that i will get through...i have to be strong for Jack cause he need's me now.
I worry about him all the time...i go to work and i will do nothing but worry what's going on at home.
He's been pretty good today,he enjoyed a nice yummy piece of apple,he still has a nice healthy appetite which makes me happy..he is still taking his metacam like a good boy,he never knock's it back...at the moment he is having a little snooze...my little man is tired.

Jack
Well my bunny Jack has been diagnosed with spondylosis...it's where his vertebre is starting to fuse together which is making it hard for Jack to hop around....it's a hard thing for me to have to watch my beloved bunny go through.
Jack is a five year old dwarf lop,and i cannot believe this is happening to him,apparantly it is a common thing in bunnies over the age of four...he's still eating and drinking just fine,he can clean himself still.
He's on metacam twice a day,i have no trouble giving it to him as he just licks the end of the syringe....i don't have to hold him to give it to him...thank goodness as i just hate stressing him out,he's dealing with it the best he can...much better than me...i have cried lot's of tears,as it just hurts me to see what he's going through.
He's not doing so well today as it seems he is struggling a bit,but Jonathon who is Jack's vet said that i shouldn't worry so much about the way he is hopping,as long as he's eating he will be fine.
He's sitting in the loungeroom at the moment with Ebony,he's cleaning his foot.
Jack has also lost some weight and when he was at the vet he was weighed and he's just 2kg
