| Update on Uma Hi everyone! Uma went in for her check up today and she has had some improvement. She can right both feet when toes are turned under! Granted the right side is a bit slow, but she can do it! Her Vet. says to discontinue the water therapy and start putting her on the ground outside and to gradually increase the time each day. Still no floor time in the house, maybe in 2-3 weeks. I am happy!!! We continue the prdnisone until gone and continue the pheno. He palpitated her back and noted she still has some tension there. Maybe next time he will do another x-ray. He is a orthopedic surgeon so I guess he knows best. She was so surprised today when I slipped her harness on her and let her walk a few mins. Yay Uma!!!!

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Awwww, thank you SO much for the update on Uma. I really appreciate hearing about how she is doing. What a little miracle! And how hard you've worked to give the necessary physcial therapy . So do they think they'll be able to avoid surgery going forward as long as she keeps improving like this? So glad to hear all of this, and please give this little fighter big HUGS from us.
