Thanks
She is getting so much stronger. Last night we were watching a movie and Layla was licking my hand and her tail was wagging for about 10 seconds straight
I know that there's no way to tell if it's reflex or brain controlled but in my heart I believe she's wagging because she's happy.
I feel like we've become so close since this happened and I don't know if I really "knew" her before like I know her now. I always loved her but now we have more of an understanding of each other, which might sound silly when it's a dog and a human.
Yesterday we were making a list to go into the city to buy groceries and we didn't even have jackets or shoes on, and Layla just KNEW, and she zoomed to the garage door and ran staight into her carrier so we'd take her with us! It broke my heart and I had to fight to pull her out of the carrier. When we got home she was waiting by the door. I've said it before but I am so thankful to have hopeful vets and others in my life who told me she could still be happy without use of her back legs. It took awhile to see it but I know more than 100% that we made the right decision.
I know that one of these days, she is going to walk again. But I'm not hoping and praying for it like I was before. I have confidence that it will probably happen, but I'm happy either way, because I know Layla is happy either way
