How nice of you to ask! He's...not worse. I think he's doing better, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up. The Dramamine is taking away the sea-sickness, so the puking has stopped which I'm thankful for. I'm home all day (I'm a teacher, my last day was Friday), and I'm really thankful to be able to work with him. Its a matter of physically relearning everything--which way is up, walking, sitting, stairs (we've made a LITTLE progress, he at least puts his two paws up on the first stair, and if I lift his back legs, he moves his front ones correctly.) I have hope that we are going to get through this, I just don't know how long the recovery will be.
In any case, he is much happier without puking all the time, and wags when we are near, and still loves his "brother" (and australian shep. mix). I feel this must be such a confusing journey for both of them! At least MH and I understand why its happening, they don't!
Thanks for thinking of us! Vestibular disease is a strange strange thing...

PAIF and SAIF welcome
That is such good news! Puking sucks for everyone, and you can just see the look in their eyes how miserable they feel. I'm glad he's not getting worse, the puking has stopped, and that his brother is standing by him. It's wonderful that you are able to stay home with him and help him out. He has a great mom!
