This whole situation just seems to be the S**T end of the stick for Layla and you and your family. You guys are handling it like champs and I'm angry at the universe for you. I try to think that everything happens for a reason. Maybe this is preparing you & Scott for parenting skin kids, maybe it's supposed to teach you a lesson in compassion, I have no idea. You both seem to be the MOST compassionate people and your parents are too, they learned how to express Layla and welcome her into their lake house with open arms! Its not fair this happened Linz. But it could not have happened to anyone less loving, understanding and compassionate as you and Scott are proving to be. I PRAY so hard that once 'the lesson' is learned, Layla will be given a miracle, the miracle of movement in her back legs.
Ive followed your thread from the beginning and my heart aches for you all. I also see how far you've come and how incredibly loving and compassionate you are, and the support you receive from your family, friends, coworkers, vet techs, therapists and significant other make this a battle worth fighting. Layla's story and your devotion truly make me want to be a better person.
Have a wonderful wonderful weekend... and I do HOPE that you do get some free time with Scott this weekend!
