Today, Nathan had his 3rd K-laser treatment. He is still on prednisone and his pain meds. Yesterday, we started to notice the pain seemed a bit less. He is now at least able to lay down on his own without us having to lay him down on his side. He still winces a bit when I pick him up. But, he is better able to move around the room (scooting). He can't stand up, but when I play with his legs, he will kick them at me. He definitely has strong feeling in his feet, but no ability to stand. Now that he can lay down on his own, he is sleeping more comfortably.
Next laser treatment is on Wednesday. Crossing our fingers that we start to see some meaningful change to indicate that he will be recovering.
Again, thanks to all Nathan's cyber-friends for sending him e-love!
I'm so glad you are giving us an update on Nathans recovery. I have been thinking of him. I am so glad the pain is easing a bit.
ReplyDeleteI hope Nathan is back to walking soon. I, like you want the best for my baby, and that means walking. I also know that if there comes a time when Cher has to go back in her cart, she can still lead a very happy dog life. She has never let the cart slow her down, and seems very happy in it. Sending healing for Nathan.
We're still praying for you Nathan! We're glad to hear that you are getting a bit more comfy and the pain seems to be lessening. We hope that you get rid of the pain all together. We don't like to see our furends hurting.
ReplyDeleteWe're here for you my furend!
Hugs,
Lily Belle & Muffin
We're on a holiday blogging break (too many things that have to be done) but we aren't that busy that we can't make time to check in on our friends.
ReplyDeleteNathan, hope you're feeling a lot better soon. Give your Mom and Dad a very special Christmas present .... you walking again.
