Poor Ani

Ani's leg is indeed bad, her muscles have pulled the ball out of the socket, and have stretched tissues not intended to be stretched.  She will have to have surgery, surgery that takes 5 hours.  She will need a cast for a while, then will need to have a brace between her legs to keep them apart so she doesn't rip the tissues again.  Christy talked with the orthopedist, and the things we have been doing, like rotating her leg out to seemingly pop the leg back in have actually been helping her.  Yay (at least for this).  It could actually have been worse had it not been for what we've been doing.  I guess it could be pain from her leg that's keeping her up at night, don't know.
