The Impending Doom

Two weeks ago, Gi was prescribed the anti-inflammatory & painkillers for her slight-limping condition. It worked fine for the first few days. But come the fifth day, it became worse. Her left fore leg was in such a position that it was hanging in midair, as if frozen in that position.
