I'm glad you are going to the doctor! I don't know what's up with your brother, but I know you are NOT responsible for the way other people behave.
Layla looks so comfy and sweet in her crate. I bet she loves being with you all day

I went to the doctor and got my physical. I also mentioned a couple of spots on my skin that have popped up over the past few years, one on the bottom of my foot, and another on my hand, and they've been growing. The one on my hand has probably actually been about 7 years or so, and it has gone from looking like a blue pen spot to a larger blueish gray spot that is raised from the skin. Anyways, he's referring me to a plastic surgeon to have them removed and tested for skin cancer. Just finally speaking up about them has lifted a huge weight off my chest. I just want to know for sure and stop worrying.
I told the doctor about Layla and he said being spiritual is so important for health and he's happy to hear I've been praying for her. He gave me "homework" for my next appointment this fall, keeping a food and activity diary, list of supplements and vitamins I take, and also a spiritual journal. He said he will pray for Layla too, and he hopes I have good news when I see him again this fall.

Well, my little Layla Bean has done it again... now she has even more strength than she had on Monday and can hold her weight for 10-20 seconds! They did acupuncture on her and started her on the underwater treadmill. The therapist said sometimes that can get things going. And she also said that Layla has been improving tremendously in the past 5 days, so that's great! I spoke with another vet last night who specializes in rehabilitation and she talked about laser light treatment too, saying it can regenerate cells and in turn that could regenerate nerves. I'm going to ask about it tonight.

Oh Lindsay, you are having such ups and downs right now! I'm so sorry and I so wish I could give you a big hug!!!
I think it is wonderful that you had a doctors appointment now and that he was so supportive. That is rare these days, in my experience. I feel a lot of support, prayers and hopeful signs radiating around you and Layla. I'm thinking that she is making progress in leaps and bounds and that in and of itself is the best sign! Stay strong, you will come out of this a better/stronger person, I just know it!
