Photo Update - Day 23

A quick peek at the start of her last week. 

[sorry, images have disappeared into the ether, please continue to later posts for more photos, ex: 5/11]

The only indication of burned skin is the loss of pigment on her lips.

She's shown no sensitivity, so pain seems minimal. In fact she's back to chewing vigorously on her nylabone, fetching her old
Kong, and taking treats with full contact of her front teeth.

I made up a fresh batch of mouthwash for the burns. Still working out what the final recipe will be (complete with pretty pictures, going to enter it in a contest), but today's was:



One cup of water. 2 tsp Irish Moss. Give it 30 minutes in the cold water before bringing it carefully to a boil. Pour that over 1 T fresh Comfrey leaf and 2 T Calendula flowers. Let steep 30 minutes then strain. When room temperature stir in an equal amount of Aloe juice and chill.

Closeup of the curious hole I noticed. I'm going to ask about that tomorrow.

And as a reminder, here she was
on day 2.

I asked about the hole and the vet said it's just an effect from the die-off of tissue. Weird, eh!
