Hi everyone, Javi and I are never the ones to ask but I’m putting my pride aside for this. Something horrible and unexpected happened. Our dog Bellatrix lost all feeling to her hind legs and tail. This also affected her going to the bathroom. We were in Miami for the weekend and she seemed fine not showing any signs that she was in pain or that anything was wrong. On Sunday afternoon 10/24/2021 we came back from lunch and she was in my fathers kitchen shaking and sitting very weird so we called her over and she was unable to use her hind legs. She started dragging herself. We didn’t know what was happening. We decided to drive back home to Orlando and take her to her Vet first thing in the morning. Throughout the night my baby was in so much discomfort. Monday morning we took her to the vet. She had no sense of feeling on her hind legs, tail, rectum or vagina. The Vet took her for X-rays which discovered nothing other than that she had no broken bones. She recommended a 2nd opinion or euthanization. She said she reached out to a specialist who didn’t recommend the surgery because she was at the point of “no reversal” due to the fact that she couldn’t use the restroom on her own said the Vet. It had been 2 days since she last used the restroom. We were so upset crying non stop for 2 days thinking we were going to put our dog down. We believed her she was Bellatrix regular vet and we trusted her but it wasn’t sitting well with us. Even though her legs weren’t working her spirit was still there. She was still her happy silly self. She was eating and drinking normally. It didn’t seem right with us. Tuesday afternoon we were scheduled to put her down but our gut was telling us otherwise. We took her to the park that morning. We picked up her back feet so she can feel like she could walk which she loved and she pooped. We immediately called the Vet. We decided to not go through with the euthanization and had the Vet schedule an emergency appointment with a neurologist. We met with the neurologist early Wednesday morning and she gave us hope!!!! Bellatrix had an MRI and it was discovered that she had two herniated disc pushing on her spine. Which caused her to become paralyzed. The doctor said she’s a pitbull and it’s rare for them to show that they are in pain. She went into surgery yesterday and it went well. She did great under the anesthesia and the doctor said she has an 85% of walking again. She currently is still at the hospital. She has 11 staples on her back and a catheter in. The doctor said she is doing great and is giving her very good odds. Unfortunately we weren’t prepared for this nor the cost and had to figure it out between the both of us on the spot and luckily we did using multiple credit cards. If you know us you know Bellatrix is our family our literal child. I would do anything for her.. We still have her recovery and rehab still left to go. We don’t know what we’re looking at financially but we know we don’t ever want to give up. Anything anyone can donate is greatly appreciated. Even a share counts. We are leaving her in Gods hands and are praying for a full recovery. Thank you in advance.
