    Re: Laser Surgery

    She continues to heal. I did notice she has a little catch in her get-along. I think her incision is still tender.
    The nice thing about it is the fact it is high on her side so substrate doesn't get in it. I'm still treating with the Silver Sulfadizine but not everyday.
    I think keeping it too moist will not allow it to form a scab the way it should.
    I want Nature's bandage to take over.
    I expect a recovery shed from her soon.

    Her incision is really looking good. I took a nice photo but I'm still having photo upload problems. I'll get it posted as soon as I can.
    Her attitude is back to normal along with her eating habits(eating everything)

    Good to hear she is recovering nicely.

    I would imagine this would leave a scar. You know how vain a woman can be

    Re: Laser Surgery

    Yeah, ouch. What a hole. Thing I don't get is the location of the hole in comparison to the original anomaly you found. Any idea what caused the growth in the first place?

    Glad she's recovering. She's very pretty.

    I'm not sure I understand what you mean, Richard.
    If you are referring to the first photo posted, those are two separate locations where growths were removed.

    Re: Laser Surgery

    I did mean the first two photos. Growth appears to be below the lateral, but there's a hole above the lateral. That's what confused me. Thanks for clearing that up.

    The small area is on her back 1/3rd and the large area is about in the middle of her body.

    Re: Laser Surgery

    I found this beautiful girl dead in her enclosure over the weekend.
    I have no idea what could have happened. She was active and a great eater.
    I don't believe her death has anything to do with her surgery. She will be missed.
