She has had sciatica issues before, so just figured it was a flare up of that. Well, after a few hours the pain got so intense, that she needed to go to the ER. While in the ER, she went to the bathroom and fell, hitting her shoulder. We weren’t really sure what caused her to fall, but the doctors decided to keep her overnight for observation. She was having difficulty walking as well. Yesterday, they had her up and walking a bit, which was still difficult for her, and they also did an MRI. From the results so far, it looks like she has some bulging discs which are causing the pain. She may need surgery, a Neurosurgeon will be consulting with her today. So, we should know more soon. We are still not sure why she has fallen a few times over the last couple of months (she has fallen at least 4 times since Christmas). She has also been experiencing an increase in dizziness and nausea. She is still in the hospital now, but may be able to come home this afternoon. I will keep you all posted. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>To keep this guide dog related… Mambo has been a HUGE hit at the hospital. When we got off the elevator last night, all of the nurses and aides shouted out, “Awww, look Mambo’s back!” And he didn’t have any trouble finding his grandma’s room. In fact, he almost pulled me over because he was in such a hurry to greet her.
