She was squeezing as she was talking and she said "OH here we go!" and this little solid black thing popped out. She looked at it closer and told me it looked like FLY LARVAE!!!!  My poor baby! But I have antibiotics for her now and some liquid to wipe the area twice a day to keep it clean. Hopefully it heals well. I'm so glad it's gone! |
A very good lesson here. It is always better to be safe than sorry. Best wishes for Layla's fast recovery!
