Thank you to everyone who has supported, donated and have sent kind words and encouragement.
Papaya is out of surgery and waking up. She is resting comfortably. We are not out of the would yet. The next week is going to be the most important. As she has two incisions in her digestive tract.
Just for anyone to know, what happened to Papaya was a freak accident. Something that was extremely rare. Papaya was take out of her enclosure to give her normal dose of liquid calcium with an ORAL syringe that we use to both draw up and administer the liquid. This has been done many times with her. I was with her the whole time. this time she decided to try to eat it (which she has never done before) she moved quickly and managed to bit the syringe in the perfect spot that just so happens to shatter it. She accidentally swallowed a piece which I had no idea she actually did. My gut feeling was to xray her to check and I’m so glad I did. I wanted to be safe then sorry. She was then rushed into emergency surgery.
Thank you as always Dr. Harry.
If you want to donate to help her please feel free to we are so appreciative. This girl is very important to us.
