Long road to recovery

Dori was hit by a car in September. It happened when Grandpa was reversing the car in the driveway and did not see her in his path. After the collision, she couldn't walk despite not having anything broken.



The next few weeks, she had zero mobility. She was in and out of the vet for x-rays, tests and was on joint & nerve medication. Her prognosis was not good with early signs of arthritis and being overweight.


Not giving up, she moved on to having swimming classes. Her weight dropped from 40kg to 32 kg.

Slowly, she progressed onto her wheelchair. After not walking for 2 months, suddenly she remembered she had legs.



Thankfully, she lost all her fattiness and regained her mobility in late November. Everyone in the household is under weight management food to stay slim from now on.
