Our family had a bad week earlier this summer. I had a minor pregnancy complication that had me in bed for a few days. Will was sick. And, then our sweet pup Molly starting dragging her back leg one morning. Jon happened to be staying home that day to help with the kids since I was unable to move about, so I asked him to take her to the vet.
Jon came back from the veterinarian visit with Molly later on that afternoon, and neither of them looked too pleased. Molly was dragging her back leg and was standing on it with her paw turned under. Jon just looked sad. He told me that it was most likely that she had a spinal cord injury and a piece of bone had gotten stuck in her spine. It would take weeks, maybe years, or maybe never heal. She would likely need a bootie for her foot so she wouldn’t tear it up from dragging it. It wasn’t a very good prognosis.
Then the unbelievable – two days later, I SWORE that her limp was getting better. Maybe it was in my head, but it really seemed to improve. By mid-week, I knew I wasn’t crazy. Molly had drastically turned a corner. In fact, I began to see some of her spunk come back. A week and a half afterwards, she darted from the house down to the yard after a rabbit. My girl was back. Color me grateful.
