We decided to do the surgery so she could be ok because she wasn't walking but as she start to wk again , he recommend us to wait, because the surgery will only cause pain to her
Oh, I missed the part about the specialist. So, it is the specialist that said to do surgery, but is now saying to wait since she is starting to walk again?

I guess my next question is: Does she seem to be in pain while she's walking now? Is she shaking or shivering? I understand the surgery might cause some pain, but is she in pain without the surgery?
