Update on Bella

Bella and I went to the ENT today.  The doctor said if she had to break the cartilage in her ear, she broke it in the best possible way for it to heal without severe scars or problems.  He also said that it was stitched very well and the scar tissue will be at a minimum.  He said if she was going to have problems with blood gathering, causing "cauliflower ear", it would have occurred already.  So she is able to go without the pressure bandage now.  She has been acting fine and we even made it through bath time with only a couple wimpers.  I am so relieved!  Now we just have to make sure it doesn't get bumped or infected in the next week or so, then the stitches will get removed on Monday.
