That's great! I'm so happy to hear about her positive outcome, and so relieved for you as well. I know what it's like to have a sick pet. I admire your commitment and perseverance. It's such an inspiring story. If you don't mind I'd like to use it as an example when teaching my kids about being responsible pet owners

Sure.
I still can't get over seeing her acting all normal.
I never honestly thought it would happen.

It's equal parts I don't like to fail and good pet ownership.
I'm very stubborn.

She is in her new, large enclosure and has been doing great. Walking and exploring as I would expect from a healthy tortoise.
Her legs are still stiff when she walks. It looks like the muscle that she lost from not being able to walk for several months has not fully healed. Maybe it wont?
A funny side note is that even now, WEEKS LATER, she still eats as much food as 3 or 4 of my other tortoises and the poops have been monumental.
No more poop photos, sorry.
She is a pleasure to watch and interact with now.
