Kirby's back problems have recurred. Last night he was getting around awkwardly and this morning he couldn't walk. We've spent all day at the regular vet, the special vet, the doggie MRI place, and the special vet again. Special Sweetheart is in the hospital tonight and for the next few nights. The doggie neurologist, who had the day off on account of a death in his family, made a special trip in to examine him, and will be reading reports and test results tonight after the funeral (thank you, thank you) and we'll know more then, but this is likely a bulging cervical disc impinging on his spinal cord and causing all manner of neurological disruption. Kirby will probably have surgery tomorrow.
The rest of us are keeping it together. Even Tiki, who cannot figure what on earth is going on.

Such sad news. Good luck to the little fellow.
Sorry to hear about Kirby. I will be thinking of him and hoping that all goes well.
