My day keeps getting better and better... :)
First I heard from Dr. Ruggles. So far so good, but he will know more on Monday when they are able to get some good x-rays. He said she's eating well and comfortable! She has a metal plate and 12 screws holding her elbow together, and she is still on bute and antibiotics. So glad to hear that she is still doing well!
Then I got an email from Rood & Riddle's fabulous Public Relations Manger, Alex Riddle! He sent these photos of my sweet girl...
Side note:
Willow would be horrified to know that I posted these photos of her looking so disheveled... so please don't tell her! ;) But of course, I think she looks beautiful... Alive and beautiful!! ♥
By the way, they were able to get her exact weight which is sadly still
only 960 pounds. You can see how thin she still is in the photo below on the right...
My guess though is that she was only 800 pounds when I
got her and probably only 700 when Leah first picked her up from that
abandoned farm. :( Makes me sick to think about it... anyway, the good
news is that she has gained and will continue to gain weight. Though
her condition will be harder to manage with her recovering from a broken
leg, we will do everything we can for her as always. ♥
Thank you Rood & Riddle!!
And THEN, Alex sent me video!!!! Check out my fighter... already walking!!! She stumbles a couple of times & I cried because it looked like she was in pain, but Martha saw the video and reassured me that she looks great and better than she had expected! I feel like it's a total miracle!
So grateful!!!
