sunnylady303 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) :lol::lol::lol: We are so much better. Mama goat went back to vet today. She is doing incredibly well considering everything. She's a little hesitant to leave the barn or the immediate area - I think she's scared and no wonder! But she has let me milk her out every day. The milk is clear. The vet says there is no infection there at all and thinks she will be able to be milked normally. :w00t: The back leg may have some infection in it but we got more antibiotics. She's lost a lot of weight but looks like she'll be fine. It feels like a huge blessing. It really was terrible. Finally got DD's stool sample. :001_huh: Should know more next week. Praying there. Dog is going back to the shelter on Monday. I hate that. I wish we could find him a good home - he is completely sweet with people. The girls are becoming resigned. It will help that we start school on Monday and I promised them ice cream at the ice cream shop which is unheard of for mama to do. :D We have water! :hurray::hurray: My knee is healing nicely and I got the library painted today. So yay. Thanks for caring. Grace is a good thing and we have had a lot of it the last few days. P.S. Here's the full story.

I somehow missed the original thread but seriously--- what a crappy couple of days! The story of mama goat going after the dog while injured herself broke my heart. I notice from your siggy you knit-- that's my stress reliever. In that position I'd have finished a whole sweater by now! Sending hugs to you and good thoughts for mama goat and dd. astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
