So far So good

Well, it has been 9 days and so far Peanut is holding her own.  It is amazing to me how she can remain calm, sweet and upbeat with such an extensive injury.  She is even using the leg and walking out to the treatment area.  My biggest worry is keeping the bone alive with it so exposed as the tissue begins to regrow. 

Leg_9_12_06 It is exciting that we have no smell when changing the bandages and that the damaged tissue remains pink and has good blood supply.  We have been making disposable oxygen tents and suffusing the leg with ozone every other day. 

We are treating the wound with an ozonated olive oil mix that contains Recovazon, Sange de Drago, Tea Tree Oil and rubarb root.  Sort of feels like covering here with salad dressing or marinating.  But it is doing an amazing job.

I was looking at your photo and have a mare that had a similar accident, but lower on the leg. This happened on Jan 20,07

Was wondering how your horses is doing, and are you wraping it?
