The fashionista...well, pretty soon anyway
I have been riding a little bit but I still have to be careful. If she works too hard her lip gets a little twisted. I goes away in an hour or two. My vet thinks that the bones at the surgery site still have to fuse better. So if I only ride her at a walk, she does ok. If this continues, I will have to go back to just hand walking her so that there is no pressure on any nerves. She still has the mrsa bacteria and is on tons of antibiotics or should I say "antibiotic$$$$$$$$". If she hadn't developed this bacteria from her surgery, we wouldn't be still fighting. We would be in recovery. Oh well, what do you do. I am in it this far, so I guess I will get through it eventually. She still has a little trouble with the moisture level in her eye so she is going to become quite the fashionista. She wears the ugly eye cup mask 24/7 but, now, when I ride she will be wearing the fancy/shmancy race horse blinkers that "The Finish Line of Oklahoma" is making for me. These blinker masks are made for race horses and come in any color, design, material, logo, and blinker color that you could imagine. Her mask will have smoke colored lenses that will cover her eye completely and act as sunglasses. I am ordering a lens for each eye so that there is some mental symmetry as well as aesthetic value. She is going to look so cool. This will help keep her eye from drying out when we ride and offer her some protection from the dust and junk in the air. I can't wait to get it. Watch for pictures. And don't ask me how much the mask is going to set me back. It is pricey but I think it is worth it.
