Thanks for your reply. I am not too hopeful but will continue with the physical therapy for awhile still. Apparently, if the nerve sheath is not damaged, the nerve can grow back (so I read) but I think in all likelihood it was damaged. Her leg was just stitched up - no microsurgery (I am told, I was not involved in that part of her care). We have just ordered a leg splint with the hope that it will help her to walk more normally and enable the leg muscle to build up some. (Not sure how much 3D printing is available in Thailand). I am trying to attach two photos of the leg with the atrophied muscle - it might be a bit hard to see, but the leg is kind of caved in rather than full and muscular like her other leg.
