still good...

shortly after my last post, sway was given another PCV.
she remained at 23%
i was silently hoping for a raised # since her retic count had spiked weeks earlier but i guess this is gonna continue to be an odd case.
i cant be disappointed, instead thankful.
im blessed that she is doing as good as she is, and its absolutely clear that she continues to improve.
23% is relatively low, but its remained stable for 65 days now and that is a benchmark im very proud of.
she is such a good dog, i love her so much, the best.
will put new pictures up soon.
my computer crashed 2 weeks ago and i just got it back up and running last night.

guarded relaxation

sorry for the lack of updates-
she hasnt been PCV tested since the retic count sprung up,
...and we're only testing her every 2 weeks which really goes to show how much her count has stabilized.
it has been good for her lately.
she continues to show slight improvements every day and i am just so thankful.

these next couple of weeks should ideally reveal a % increase,
and we are just gonna keep working hard and enjoying each day as they come.
sway is now able to get herself on and off the bed, jump in/out of the car, go all the way down the stairs, trot, even run a little.
she is continuing to gain weight as well, appetite is still strong.
things are good :)

its crazy cuz things were just so intensely hectic for months, and now days come and go without incident and all i can do is thank God.
i havent been posting much since things have been pretty calm,
but dont wanna lose sight of keeping this up to date with even the slightest of goods...cuz everything is important.
the impression that this disease is only peppered with bad experiences would be false and hopefully this site can reflect that.
AIHA/IMHA can be beat, i know so ... dogs have done it and hopefully sway will get to the point where this thing just fades into our past.
