Vet visit, part the next

Even though Rajiyyah’s leg has been healing well, she has been doing something to it every night. Finding dried blood that has dripped half-way down a leg isn’t normal. It’s not oozing or seepage, it’s like she is re-damaging the leg every time she is in her stall. I don’t know what she is doing. One of the vet students suggested that maybe she has something still stuck in the cut that is preventing it from healing fully.

I am not sure what is going on. The vet is supposed to be back out today to see Rajiyyah. Some time this afternoon, not sure exactly when.

When I write her scenes, I have my…
