Update on Encore:
Encore does seem to be responding to treatment for her broken arm.
I recently began adding some different enzymes to her food. I can't say that this is what is making the difference, but after 5 days with them, she is moving more "normally" in that arm (she no longer drags it behind her), she is having excellent bowel movements, she is attempting to jump (but is in a hospital cage set up for broken bone, so not much to jump to) and last night I gave her a wheel and she RAN in it. Not walking, but running. :)
She has also started grooming her entire body again and she has not lost any weight.


She does still have the turned out shoulders and hips, but I feel better that she is making some progress. I'm keeping her covered in prayer and kisses and believing the best for her.

If they're as good looking and sexy as Dr. House, I'll go there! :)

Val...it's great news about Encore...I'm also sending healing thoughts her way (yours, as well).

AW Val,

How horrible. Why didn't you say anything about the turmoil you were going through? You didn't have to go it alone! Next time (hopefully there isn't a next time) you tell us.

Super Dooper facehugs to you! May we ALL learn from this tragedy!

Ok ya'lls. lol You're making me look bad, I'm not posting on Val's thread here because it's medical. She likes condolences/hugs in a separate post from the medical ones. But ...since everyone else broke the rules, I will too. Sending a kiss for Encore. And a prayer.
