Mabel's 1st Day of Freedom

Mabel's first 18 days of recovery were spent in the loving care of Michelle and Andrew in Charleston, SC.

Here are some pictures taken on her first day at their house. At this point she weighed 33.7 lbs and we were all pretty convinced that she would need a skin graft on the hideous wound on her leg. She was sad, scared, meek and struggling to survive. That was all about to change...


Scary skinny Mabel on her first day at Michelle's.
Ribs, hips and spine on display. It doesn't get much skinnier than this.

A view of the size of the leg wound.

Up close and personal.
