I
was successful at my second try giving my goat her shot the other day.
As a matter of fact, I have continued to do it twice a day ever since!
Except yesterday, it was pouring down rain and my sweetheart went out
and gave the evening shot.
It's still not fun- but I
have to do it. My husband said if I can keep it up he will get me a
Starbuck's Card. He knows my weaknesses. Coffee is one, and the other
is his big muscles. I love both of those things!
I still have to irrigate
that wound too- but it's gotten even better...it keeps forming a scab,
and since there are two holes and the inner one needs to close first, I
have to keep pulling the outer scab off and pushing the syringe inside
(ICK) to the inner hole. (BARF) The whole thing is pretty gross, and
it's freezingly bitter cold outside. I am whining I know, but good
grief! I can't wait until that goat is healed!
