Yes, I was happy to hear that she is not in pain. I really don't know what to think. She told me that this could have been as recent as a month ago...that muscle wasting is just not a good measurement; so now I am wondering if perhaps she was hit by a car and her owners dropped her off?? Sometimes the shelters don't have the stories straight...it is just odd to me that her original paperwork said she was hit by a car. Where did it come from...from someone telling them that....or a guess because of how she walked? Not that I will ever really know...just makes me wonder.
All I know is that we have to pursue this and test her because it could be progressive and it would be awful if we did not and she ended up worse...perhaps incontinent. At least with the testing we will know for sure....that is something we need to know. We also will know IF we can perhaps fix the problem. Of course even then, if it is something operable there is never a guarantee there. Neurological stuff is so different from a straight on orthopedic case.
She needs a lot of prayers!
