Shai Adopted

Shai is adopted and travels with his new family to Berlin.
Looking forward to photos in our new home soon.

A third vaccine was administered.
A follow-up barium smear showed that his esophagus was still slightly dilated, but signs of a full recovery.
The ration of healing food has been increased.
In 2 weeks is the next check-up so we're hoping for even better news.

Shai's feeding tube was removed yesterday as our 2 week old boy is eating normally.
He's over 800. He'll be on medication for a while longer. It is fed with gastrointestinal food.
In 2 weeks, he will have a control examination of his esophagus.
He is feeling well and needs to get out of the clinic and find a cozy home.

Shai's first steps on a walk...
He is quite weak, but he has been eating for a whole week now without throwing up. His strength is slowly coming back, but we will help!

He had an x-ray of his esophagus today.
The photo shows that the inflammation has decreased.
His stitches were removed.
He was slightly upset and we checked him again for parasites, but none.
We will have to wait another week or so and the stomach tube will be removed.
And our boy will finally find his man!

Our skinny boy has gained 400 g!
He has been eating orally for several days and has not vomited.
He is no longer on antibiotic treatment.

The diagnosis of megaesophagus still threatens him, but it will be a month before the doctors make a decision.
If he's eating well, in a few days the tube will be removed and our boy will be ready to go to a foster home.
Is someone ready to give him a home and love?

Baby Shai has dilated oesophagus, not getting much better these days... Still vomiting and vomiting at least 1-2 times a day. For this reason, he was examined with barium slurry, and an endoscopic examination of the esophagus was performed - apparently there is no narrowing.

In the next two weeks we hope to see positive developments. The doctors are doing their best, so far there is still hope, keep your fingers crossed for him.

Shai's second surgery passed. It became clear why he kept throwing up. He has a hiatal hernia. The stomach should be sutured to the abdominal wall.

"We've fixed the hiatal hernia and put in a stomach tube, which we'll basically be feeding him through for the next two weeks to help the esophagus recover."
Dr. Dimitrievska

Hard days for Shai. He's so skinny and small, but he fights like a real man!
🙏 Thank you to all rescuers, doctors and donors ❤️

The lung is fine. The puppy is breathing more steadily. Still collecting air in the lung, but less than expected. If it continues like this, the chest tube will be removed within 24 hours.
He is stable, has an appetite, but is vomiting and disoriented. He has high leukocytes. Antibiotic therapy was changed. Tomorrow they will run his biochemistry.

The baby has a diaphragmatic hernia. The entire diaphragm was torn. All the organs were in the chest. He lived like that for a while. There are adhesions on the organs. Due to the compression of the organs, the boy has barotrauma - he has a lung problem. The liver is also in bad shape.
The operation was performed by Dr. Dimitrievska and went well. He is currently on oxygen. The next 48 hours are critical. After it passes, it will be seen whether he will be able to breathe well - a new intervention may be necessary.
His blood is low. If necessary, he is ready to be transfused.

Thank you to everyone who supported Shai at this difficult time🙏
