Rajiyyah’s Leg Lookin’ Good!

Vet came out and had some good news: The cut is healing well. Swelling continues to go down, infection appears to be going away, and Rajiyyah didn’t have an infection. We’re going to keep her on antibioitics for another five days with continued hydrotheraphy (hosing for 20 minutes) and wrapping while the wound is still open.

So very good news. I’ve included a picture of her leg. It’s not great and it’s turned the wrong way. However, you can see how the swelling has gone down from earlier pictures.

    The last time I really rode consistently was Isis’ show back in July. I rode Rajiyyah today and really felt slippery in the saddle (didn’t help I was wearing linen pants). Boy do I need to get my legs back in shape! Any way… She was good today. Full of energy and excitement, but overall…

  • I rode!

    I rode today! =) Isis and I rode with another person at the barn in the front pasture. It was Isis’ first time there undersaddle. We were both a little nervous. Overall she was good (and would have been better if I had calmed down a little). It was nice to be back on her….

  • And Kasane said WHEE!

    I spent this evening at the barn after an intensely stressful week of deadlines and conflicting priorities. So I went out and played with my girl. She was still in the barn when I got there. She yelled when she saw me. It’s been in the mid-70s, so beautiful weather and 20 degrees cooler than…
