My dog Luna is recovering nicely

Luna fell down the stairs a couple of weeks ago:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x7654818

And it turned out that she had a UTI, kidney infection AND e.coli. :wow: Poor baby.....

We went for a checkup today and she has gained two pounds :bounce: and her bladder and kidney tests were all negative :D

She has to go back in three weeks for a growth culture test on her bladder to ensure the e.coli has been vanquished.

I am so thankful that Luna is doing better.

And thanks DUers - you gave me strength to keep going on...

9. It has been a rollercoaster of emotion for me...

I know she is old - today is her 15th "birthday" - she is feeling good and smiling :bounce:

11. I certainly will.

I was surprised I had even managed to get some weight back on her. The doc was pleased. :hi:
