Home again
Jodie's back home again, and woozy again.
This time, instead of a big X of external stitches in the middle, she's got a neat row of little X's all the way along. Plus side, this will help it hold together; minus side, we now have to be careful that she doesn't fiddle with them. Cone of shame for her, I'm afraid.
When the vet called to say that she was waking up, he said that he'd had to cut away more skin to tidy the edges of the wound so that he could re-stitch it, so now it's really rather big and there will be Problems if he has to do it again. We've to be very careful to keep her quiet, and no walks until she goes back to be checked on Tuesday.
At least she's back home with me, though.
(Maybe we *should* have had her insured....)
