That sounds like a great start! Are you still working with her PT wise to bring her head up manually? Would be good to give the muscles a little stretch so they don't forget where they're supposed to be able to go to.

Yep, P.T. 5 times per day over the weekend, and now that the work week has started, 3-4 times per day. Keep your fingers crossed.

Look at her now. Still hangs her head a little when standing, but this is the best we have seen her yet. Go Shannon Go!

It probably just got in a bad position in the uterus or birth canal and she probably just has a crick in her neck that feels better when she holds it down

So I won't keep boring you all, but look at her now. Sometimes patience is difficult when we want them to be healthy right away. She is not quite 100% but looking better every day. We think we will keep her.
