What a journey it has been! It feels like it's been much longer since my girl's been doing the dance of her life on 3 legs! I remember telling my vet that even if she was pain-free w/out that extra leg for a month it would be worth it and here we are crossing the 2 month mark and showing no signs of slowing down. 

I wrote a blog post today (that is much longer than what I will post here) about how the human is doing. But as far as Shelby is concerned, she has no concept of dates, times, etc. She doesn't miss or even remember that leg at all - her 'phantom' issues have decreased (however she will still bolt out of sleep and run away). Occasionally she will sit on the floor and make 'scratching' motions with that leg toward her left ear/neck. It's odd - she never (even when she had 4 ) scratched behind her right ear/neck. If I see her doing it, I try and help her.

She hasn't been in my bathroom in about a week (she still retreats there on occasion).  She is less HUNGRY all the time which makes me think the probiotics are helping since she was probably pooping all her food/nutrition out. She still a lot of water if I don't give her more food or feed her fast enough or tell her to stop begging. It's like a weird OCD thing (mainly because she never did this before do I mention that it's a bit weird now). But no cause for concern, as far as I know. 

She goes for chemo tomorrow and I can't wait to check her weight. I swear she feels heavier but I have been wrong in the past ... 

She definitely enjoys her home-cooked meals (finally, someone enjoys my cooking).  

She's a fighter and she's living her best life ... Here's to many more months!
