  Well, I took Molly to the vets yesterday afternoon. I just didn't 
feel like she could wait till today. It's her abscess again. That's 
why 
she's having trouble eating & her eye is bulging again. Dr. Hall said 
to give the ABs time (about a week) & to keep feeding her whatever I 
can get her to eat. She unfortunately hates her C.C. & is finicky to 
begin with. If they can't get the abscess under control with the ABs, 
he said he would have to remove the eye to get to the abscess to 
remove 
that. He said he has removed eyes on other piggies & they have done 
well & since she is blind anyway, she will not notice any difference 
in vision. Hopefully it will not come to that, but he wanted to 
prepare us for that possibility. She is doing ok, but can't eat 
pellets. That leads me to question #1, Can she eat small pieces of 
bread? Like the soft middle part of white or wheat bread? That would 
kind of make up for the lack of grain in the pellets maybe? She can 
munch some hay if I cut it up into tiny pieces for her & does eat some 
C.C. off of a paper plate. She refuses to use the syringe. Also she is 
eating canned pumpkin & I'm chopping her fruits & veggies into tiny 
pieces. She is also itchy, & he checked her for mites, fleas, fungal 
infection, everything seems ok. Can I bathe her in like "Head & 
Shoulders" shampoo to help the itching? Or is that to strong? Sorry 
for all the ?'s, I just want her to feel better. Please keep her in 
your prayers. Thanks.
