Hanging In



I don't know how, but Levi is still fighting, he had to be hospitalized last week, his back legs got increasingly weaker until he lost use completely. Silver lining, we now have a new doctor who seems to be paying more attention. The meds he was on haven't improved anything in a month and have been changed, and he'll be seen much more frequently. He's home now and moving slowly, but he's up under his own power. The new doc said IL dogs get worse before they get better, and he's hoping we've hit bottom and will only go up. There's been so many ups and downs, more downs, the few good days he has are treasured. He had a fairly good day yesterday considering, today is already heading for a down. He has an appointment tomorrow to gauge how the new meds are working.


Still knitting like crazy, I wake up repeatedly at night just to make sure Levi's still breathing and end up knitting until I can fall asleep again. I completed Hannelore, its not blocked yet but its very pretty. Not sure what to start next, maybe another Niebling.
