Tomorrow Coby hits day 300!!!

Tomorrow will mark day 300 of being prednisone free!!! 300!!! Way to go to my little man...what a trooper he's been this past year. HOWEVER....Coby did decide to give us a scare the first day we moved into our new apartment in Florida. Not sure if he slipped or jumped, but he "fell" 2 stories from the balcony/roof. He had diarrhea...the first day in our new place, so I pushed him onto the balcony, thinking he wouldn't try & escape. Well...I turned my head for a couple minutes to clean up what he started in the house & he disappeared. I ran all over the "roof" of the building & couldn't find him - he squeezed his skinny butt thru our balcony railings (see photos below). Anyways, I just happened to look down to see if he "jumped" & sure enough....he was down on the drive way area, near a busy street, just sitting there. He was obviously hurt b/c he tried to walk & was limping. He wasn't crying, but he was hurt. I almost jumped off the roof myself to get him, but thankfully someone drove by & stopped to make sure Coby stayed put until Chris got downstairs. So...I then took "superman" to the ER for x-rays & they didn't see anythikng broken or wrong. However, Coby was still walking goofy & not normal, so the vet suggested seeing an orthopedic specialist about 30 minutes north of where we were - so I rushed Coby there thru rush hour traffic. They only said it looked like Coby has/had a luxating patella in his left leg - which I'm almost positive is the side he "fell" on & that is new. So, he was just put on some anti-inflammatory & pain meds for a week....along with "bed rest". LOL He's doing better now, but what a scare. And $700 later.....our first day in our new apartment....OMG! Coby the flying wonder dog!!!

Quickie Update

Just a super quick update - Coby's doing great, but we're not in FL yet. We fly out Monday!

37 weeks!

Little Coby has been prednisone free for 37 weeks now which also equals 259 days! He remains on the keppra three times daily & cyclosporine for allergies, but that is it. No chemo, no injections, no blood work, no sickness, no hospitalizations....nothing but good, happy, healthy days!! In less than 2 weeks, we will officially be in Florida. We move into our new place September 1st & Coby will then be the Florida dog he is meant to be!! I will take plenty of pictures of my little boy in his new surroundings....new friends (hopefully if he doesn't eat them first) & many many sunny warm beautiful days! We will be able to take Coby to the ocean to swim, he will LOVE Florida....I just know it! We all will love it!!! Until then.....xoxo!
