Steve,

How is Spot doing?

She's not the same girl as before the injury. Hoping the laser treatment will get her on the road to something more normal.

Here are a few photos from Spot's laser treatment. She still tested positive for worms and has been placed on another 5 days of meds.
Here's a link to the laser company Revolutionizing Laser Therapy and Pain Relief in the Veterinary Market « Companion Therapy Laser

She's not a very happy radix.

I hope she makes a full recovery! Laser therapy is amazing! I've used it on myself and on my horse's back and it really does work

That is a good question and one I can't answer. Noticed her have trouble moving after she gave birth. Looks like there was also vertebra damage also. The paralysis is in the lower 2/3's of her body. She can can move it somewhat be can't coordinate the movement with the top 1/3. I take her out daily and do physical therapy with her. She's been off feed for 3 weeks and that is my big concern now.

I'm sorry to hear things are still a bit rocky Steve


Um out of curiosity, that little laser that you have, how much did it cost? I'm looking into one for my carpels tunnel but the ones that I've seen are just so expensive.

I think that's the vet's laser, right- Steve? That would be quite the getup in the home though- Turn the Radix Ranch into the Radix Rehabilitation and Relaxation Resort Ranch!

It will make a lot of sense if it is the vets, because I've seen those things selling for like 300$ one with a laser the size of my fist is like 800-3000$ which really sucks, cause laser therapy works really good on aching joints and since my carpel's tunnel bothers my work, it would be helpful to have one at home (and that I could use on the horse )

That's right. It's not my laser. Wish it was.
Then it would be the RR&RRR
