00:00She wasn't moving very well.

00:04It's okay, there you go, sweetheart.

00:07My goodness.

00:17That's when the real work began.

00:19Good job!

00:21I wanted to make Nova happy.

00:23So, for the next couple of months, all I did was play games with her.

00:28She didn't have any leg muscles.

00:30So we did a lot of exercise.

00:32And very slowly, she started to improve.

00:36That's a good girl. Look at you.

00:39Yes, mama. That's a good girl.

00:45Good job, mama. Good job.

00:47Good job.

00:53It took four months for the dermatologist to finally diagnose Nova with lupus.

01:03Once we got the diagnosis, they cleared her to move into my house the next week.

01:07And then we started bathing her with special medication.

01:11That's when she got her life back.

01:15What a dream you are to walk.

01:18She's been through a lot, but she never gave up.

01:26So we have a big announcement to make, everyone.

01:28I'm adopting her. This is her home.

01:36She will live happily ever after.
