Poop problem

About a week ago, Stampy pooped in the house. Tonight, he and Luna got excited when Tom got home, and they were racing around, and as Tom went to let them out, Stampy started crouching and then pooped in the house just before the door on the way out. Tom said he had a look of horror on his face (on Stampy's face). I am so, so, so not ready for Stampy to fall apart.
I have not done a post about the visit with the vet last week that said yes, it is Wobbler's, and it is coming from his cervical vertebrae because it is in his front feet and back, and that he will gradually (maybe slowly) decline until he loses bowel control, or he will wake up paralyzed one day from the neck down. There is no way to know the timing.
We put him on a small dose of steroids and used a cool laser, one or both of which seemed to help quite a bit.
