Ladyjane: Thank you so much for that encouragement! That's what I keep telling myself, but I think I expect an instant miracle, and I know better. I will say this, before her surgery she wouldn't even let me run my hand over her hip area, but now I can sit and very lightly massage that area and she actually acts like it feels good. And she is not exhibiting real pain like she was before and her overall appearance and attitude is better so it's not like I don't see progress. I just can't get impatient.
