Recovering Well

I am reluctant to say too much but Mary is doing well.

  • Her appetite is back for the first time I can really remember and she is actually asking for snacks. (Her tummy is very happy she is off antibiotics.)
  • Without the thigh ring and foot plates she can often be found on the ground playing with her dog or toys. She can't do everything she used to BUT she can do a lot more and is not as sad about not being able to play the way she could prior to May 10.


  • At PT on Saturday they measured 0 degrees for her ankle. It was originally at -15 and unlike the knee the ultimate goal is +15. Half way there!

  • They measured her knee at -19 degrees. The goal is 0 degrees.
  • Dr. Scott didn't want to see us for 2 weeks but now because of his schedule we are seeing him on Friday, 8 days after the last procedure. Hope it's short, sweet, and all positive.
  • Her patience is starting to wane but hopefully some good healthy progress will help her gain it back.
  • Hoping no updates to the blog until after the doctor visit on Friday...
