She is able to stand for a short while on her own, but she hasn't be able to take any steps. She tries to get up on her own but her legs are just too weak yet.
I've noticed one of her legs looks more swollen than the other, so i've been putting ice on it twice a day. Otherwise she is doing really good!
You can put an ice pack on her legs about six times a day for about 10 minutes at a time unless she shows discomfort with you doing so. You don't want her to struggle trying to apply the ice pack is what I'm trying to say. It sounds like she is doing better. It will just take time.
