Accident Update 4

Benadryl doesn't work. Bela is going crazy & taking us all with her. She was doing great until Sunday - she started to pool fluids despite the drain, and I had to go back to full compresses etc.
She had an appointment Monday morning for drain removal, so I called in. (Glorious part of them being open 24 hours.) They said it could wait but they may need to move the drain. I was thinking infection. Either way- how much will this cost?

I also asked the Mr. to request Tranqs - and to convince them she weighs 140lbs.

She had her appointment, Dad took her, and the dr RAVED about how well she looks, how good the stitches look, and what good care she has received (FULL TIME JOB- and its nice to know she could tell and that it was helping). The pooling was from the drain itself. Her body had finished oozing from the wound and decided that it wasn't okay with the foreign body & concentrated on "getting rid of it". The drain is removed and the hole stays... no stitches for it. Already looks better Mike said.

She also laughed at the tranquilizer request and okay'ed her for a mile walk 3 times a day or more as needed.

Well thats our update. Ive been busy changing sheets, compressing, cleaning, medicating, feeding, comforting, walking, ...

But overall had a nice weekend. She can have her E-collar off. Which by the way, she rubs against her xpen like a cup against a jail cell.
