Pictures

I was finally able to load some pictures. Here is Savvy before. You can see her the melanomas above her rectum. It is not a smooth patch of skin.


This picture is a little blurry but you can see her rectum with the melanomas above and below. 


She has many melanomas under her tail as well, This one is the largest.


Ann-Marie cut off the melanomas that were below her rectum.


This is the area below her rectum stapled closed. We hope they will continue to stay stapled and not open up. It actually looks pretty good!



This is her rectum at 1am this morning. It is supposed to swell and be uncomfortable. The melanomas will eventually open up and fall off. 


This was taken at 11am today. You can see how the swelling has gone down. A huge improvement from last night. She did scratch it on the fence last night some, so you can see some tearing. There is also swelling down below, which is normal as well. Her staples are still in thankfully.


Here is a closer picture of her rectum. You can see how the swelling has gone down. She is peeing normal and is having problems pooping, but it is coming out. She has had no signs of colic. She has been eating grass or hay ever since the area was injected. 


Haha!  We took this last night. Pal is in heaven with his bunny and ball! He's a happy dog!!

Stay tuned for more pictures. I want to say thank you to Dr. Ann-Marie Hancock and all the staff at Greenville Mobile Equine. They are fabulous and helped me through a very difficult day yesterday!! You guys rock!!
