My children are in NO WAY touching her right now! I told them maybe in a month they can again. I won't even touch her! This is heartbreaking. My little Molly sits in her playpen and lays there all day with her softee e-collar on. I go over there and talk to her, I put on medical gloves whenever I touch her. At night, I put her in her crate and she sleeps in that in my bedroom over on the tile in my vanity area. The next day I wash all of her bedding. My ENTIRE house, carpets, couches, floors, bedding has been washed and/or vacuumed. I have even sucked up
and vacumed all of our mattresses and Molly doesn't even sleep on our beds. But she has layed on mine a bit and said goodnight to the kids at bedtime on theirs in the past. I have to say though, we have had her for almost 2 months and not a single one of us has had a single symptom. I hear it is a rash that starts as a red dot, itches like crazy and goes away on it's own. The mites do not breed on us, they eventually die. They prefer to stay on their host. Now that she has had the ivermectin, we are probably not going to get it since we haven't in all of this time. But to be safe, we are not touching her. I may in a week or so, put her on my lap over a towel and wear gloves. BUt I am told that I really do not need to do that. But, I am a germ freak and I saw that thing under the microscope. I just want this over with so that my poor little baby can feel loved again like usual.

No one is judging you but I would not have my children (I don't have any) touch her while she has mange..it very easily could spread to them. I doubt the lemon laws would pay for them. |
