Post-op Day 5

Well almost made it one week. Molly is doing well today. Sean said she slept well but woke up at 4am to go outside (umm nice:) I had to work again last night. I came home and did the whole massage, ROM and ice.

It looks like the swelling is going down some. The skin in her left leg is getting more loose. The fluid that was setting in her ankle is not as much as yesterday. Her incision looks great.

I was able to take her outside for a little bit (before I went to sleep)....she does some "exploring" and then lays down again in the grass...which I actually find good for her because she stretches her legs straight out back and that is really extending her knee. She can't lay completely stretched out in her kennel, just not enough room.

Today looks like rain which is going to be interesting getting Molly outside throughout the day...but we will tackle that challenge as it comes.

Will post some pictures later. The kids want some pictures of them with Molly included in this blog....so stay tuned!
