Up in the clouds
*Wipes brow*
The vet came this morning to remove a suspected sarcoid from just above my 4 yr old cob's lip. She behaved so well, had a text-book reaction to the sedation and local anaesthetic and only noticed when he stitched the wound because he tugged a bit on the thread.
She is now back in the field eating grass, for which she is highly thankful because ........do you know? She had to stand inside with nothing to eat from 6 o'clock this morning! And her mean friend wouldn't throw some of her hay over the wall for her! And then, even though she was feeling very woozy and a few mouthfuls of something, anything would have made her feel so much better, she wasn't even allowed a mouthful of straw. In fact as soon as she started to try to pick some up, she found herself back in the empty stable! And the only thing to do in there was watch her friend eat, again!
Now we just need to wait for the histology report but vet thinks it was a sarcoid and that he got it all away. Fingers crossed.
