Sally’s Aunt Sarah (the photographer) met up with us at Hydro today! She took a photo, so once she sends it to us, we will post it! Thanks Sarah!
Things have been going well at hydro. She is really starting to keep her leg weight down without crossing it over as much. Carrie from hydro is thrilled with her progress! The other day, though, she had a small seizure lasting about 30-45 sec, but is scared me to death.
I emailed the vet about just getting some bloodwork done, but she thought I should make an appt. So Sally will be going in on June 12 to see the vet and get some possible bloodwork and to also possibly get x-ray to make sure all her screws are still in. She is having some grinding and the surgeon said that is probably due to arthritic cartilage, but it also a good idea if possible to get an x-ray. We are still doing her stretches daily which is helping a lot and I am starting to do some jin shin jyutsu on her and she likes that as well. she absolutely LOVES going to hydro and even just getting out and getting attention is raising her spirits. She seems so much happier and I think this helps her healing. We will still wait until this leg is healed 100 % before doing the other leg, since things have been so complicated with this first leg. We are trying to stay positive and calm and know that healing just takes time and patience.
on another note. Sally’s friend Sam and Monroe need your help! Sam was huge in helping Sally get her surgery. He even made sally her own facebook page. Now his dog Monroe needs some help. Read his diary here and help if you can. He is such a good person with a big heart. Forget Starbucks for a day and help Monroe!
Many thanks, Terrah. I saw this blog on Tuesday night and meant to get back to you.
Your support in spreading the word is going great with donations from complete strangers and definitely shows the kindness of them, as the saying goes.
Blessings to both you and Sally-
Sam
