Beep Update

Many of you have sent such nice wishes for a speedy recovery for Beep!  

Thank you.  

Your thoughts and prayers have been most appreciated!  

I thought I would share a few things with you about Beep.

Her surgery went well.  

She has quite a big incision though and needs to be monitored as there is no cone to use for birds.  The x-ray showed a button and a "needle" in her stomach. 

If you look closely you can see a straight line that was the "needle" above 

and to the left of the button.

This is what they actually took out of her.  It was not, in face, a needle.  

We are not sure exactly what it is.  

The bad part is that it had poked some things it should not have.  

The vet had to clean out some dead tissue and also pull the adhesions apart, 

so that equals one sore birdie!

This is her incision line.  As you can see it is pretty large!

I got to be nurse grandma on Saturday morning as my daughter had to go away for a few hours.  

Beep was pretty good with me until she work up enough to figure out that I was not her mom!  

LOL  

I took a few videos of her snuggles with me in the morning on Saturday.

My daughter is currently trying to get her interested in eating and drinking.

I had to go back to the farm on Sat night to bring enticements.

I think she ended up tube feeding her.

I think my husband will be picking up some pain meds today.

Hopefully with pain med on board she will feel more like eating.

I will keep you all posted!
