Our family had a bassett hound that made it two years past a rather dire prognosis, and my only bit of advice is stay hopeful and keep doing what you're doing. You're such a good pet owner, and you know when something is wrong, which is key to fixing it. Regardless, you've taken great care of her, and I'm hopeful that you'll continue to do so for a good long while.
