Oh no! I thought she would just be able to get back to normal, too. She and you are going to be so frustrated. I feel so bad for her, trying to protect her leg. I know it must feel really different. Maybe, while she's laying down, you could sort of massage the leg and move it back and forth so she could know that it's ok to use it now. Please give her hugs and kisses from me and Duke. I can't wait to get all their pics together.
