I've tried to start this post about 6 times and can't seem to get it right.
I'm very concerned for CB. Surgery went well but I'm thinking I should have let nature run its course or had her put down.
Basically she's had the opening of her cloaca removed and set back in place one scute back. Her rectum was sew back in place and we are hoping she will heal.
I have worked with this girl for the last 6 months and have grown very fond of her. I feel now I have put her in a worse position than if I would have just let her problem run its course. Which would have eventually cost her her life.
I feel at this point I've done more harm than good. I've never second guessed my decisions before but on this one I am.
Keeping this thing clean and viable is going to be next to impossible.
If I see any signs that this thing is going south I will put her down. I feel terrible.

Sometimes you have to tell your self you did the right thing and the best thing, Its like when I had to put my dog down last month, If I didn't put her down would she be alive today?? I only hope and pray I did the best thing, Good Luck with her and just think if this snake never appeared in your life.................

Steve, you're a great person. Don't feel bad. You're doing what you can to keep her alive. If I were the snake I'd be happy to be in the hands of someone so caring and loving. I'm sure she appreciates your help. I hope everything goes smoothly with her.

We can't help making the wrong decisions sometimes mate. Thinking about 'what ifs' isn't going to do any good. You know you're only doing the best you can. Fingers crossed things pick up.

CB went back to the Vet. this morning. She herniated some tissue around her new cloaca.
My Vet. didn't think it was a big deal and was very please at the look of her new vent.
She'll have some surgery this afternoon and probably return home early this evening.

Hoping for the best!

Ditto from me Steve.

Got a call late that CB was out of surgery. I'll pick her up in the morning.
Looking forward to seeing her and getting her home.
