Lo and behold, yesterday she seemed better. Ken thought it was in part due to her adjusting to the situation, and that may well be, but seems to me she's walking LOTS better...and not nearly as fearful. Now I'm wondering if the antibiotic is responsible for the improvement: started it again...oy.
STAY TUNED :-)...The body is truly amazing, and I've seen a lot of dramatic turn-arounds...will keep y'all posted!
