Todays update- Bella is continuing to get better.
Bella is eating and drinking very well. She had a stool last night that was firmer and no blood that Tom could see- I though there might have been a little bit of darker clotted blood but might have been my eyes. This morning another stool which was pretty firm and no blood. I am keeping her either in my lap or next to me on the couch and will let her walk around in the same room I am in when I am home, let her sleep in the bed with me last night- she slept well through the night. I carry her out into the yard to potty on her leash and back into the house. I put her in her crate (with plenty of water) while I am at work- partially because I don't want her to overdo it or for her to get jumped on by Baci and partially because the prednisone is making her pee a lot and I don't want her having accidents in the house. I'll check in on both furbabies at lunch. She appears to be feeling much better- still sleeping a lot and not moving terribly fast most of the time, but her face and eyes look better, she doesn't appear to be in any pain that I can tell. She does seem to want to run about a tiny bit- not too much. She is walking just fine. I assume her being somewhat sleepy and lethargic still is related to her taking the muscle relaxer/pain medication.

Overall, everything is well and I am very relieved.
