Hi All!
Sorry I couldn't post till tonight but I'm here now. As you can see, Racci's numbers have been great! I don't know what changed but it seems she may be over the bad slump. I just hope her neuropathy gets better again with the better numbers. She's sliding all over the wood floor when walking again, poor baby.
I have however, noticed some improvements today and yesterday which I think are due to the Adequan and now that the numbers are low again she's finally able to see the improvements! Yesterday she got off the window seat onto the chair without waiting for my help, which was a big deal for her. I taught her how to do it and practice it with her but she's been afraid to trust herself to do it alone until yesterday. I could see she wanted down but had to go to the bathroom so said I'd be right back and when I came back she had gotten to the chair herself and was sitting there waiting! Naturally I told her how wonderful she was and made a fuss over her.
Then today she actually made a short jump! I was shocked! Racci hasn't jumped for so long I can't even remember when it last was!!! Granted it was a tiny jump but she remembered that she is supposed to be able to do it. Other than this her half jump half slide down the chair to the floor is the closest to a jump she's come. She was on the ottoman and the chair was just a little too far away to step to so instead of reaching really hard or crying for me to help her, she jumped! It was great! She was very proud of herself and started cleaning and primping. It really did my heart good. :razz:
Talk to you later.
Hugs,
Melanie & Racci
