Bella is not putting any weight on that leg at all this morning. It is so hard to see Ripley racing through the yard and Bella sitting on the sidelines. Their early morning romps are so routine and I know she is wishing to join in. She came back upstairs this morning after going potty outside. Going up anything (stairs, onto a bed) is harder than going down but she seemed determined to do it. I lifted her up onto the bed, where she seemed she was wanting to go, and I put her food bowl on the bed. She ate laying down. I somehow got the impression that she could get used to this lifestyle. Oh my, I can't wait for these pills to kick in and make my sweetie return to her normal self.
