Walking

Happy to see the dogs
We have a correction to make to our last post.  Will is now unable ABLE to walk on his own! We were told that it would likely take time, hard work and physical therapy to enable Will to walk again, but it is now less than 2 days since we got home and Will is already walking around.  He is just a bit unsteady, but he is doing it and we are hopeful it won't be long before he is back to being able to run and play just like before the surgery.   Another good thing is that his appetite is back and his nausea seems to have passed.  Will is eating so much that we are having to feed him snacks in the middle of the night.  We know that he still has a lot of recovery to do, but he is enjoying being home with our dogs and his big brother Jack.
