    GRACEful Update.
    For all of those that have been keeping up with Grace, here is her latest installment of "Updates on Grace". Grace finally made her first #2. I got a picture, as I knew it would be requested. This has to be the proudest I have ever been about a pile of stinky mess. Also, she ate her third meal today, which also happened to be her first rat pink. (she has been eating mice up until now) I am so proud of her, I don't know what to do. I almost think I should pop some champagne. Well I think we made it over the hump, and I will post updates every now and then for those of you that have been watching her progress. I also put a picture of her wound up, which is healing very nicely, to my surprise, and the first full body shot of her that I have taken that came out nice. I hope you enjoy the steamer as much as me.

    Thanks for all of the prayers. I think they helped.

    I was actually wondering about her today, and went on a mission looking to see if I had somehow missed an update.

    She is so beautiful and so glad that she is doing so well. And her boo-boo is looking great!

    What a smokin' little spider! And I can't believe how quickly and cleanly her wound is healing! But most of all...how exciting to see that all her insides seem to be in the right order and not twisted or blocked or anything!

    Seriously...this calls for the banana-carrot mambo!!!

    That's awesome, Tim! I don't think I've ever been so happy to see a pile of snake poo :sunny: Grace is healing up so nicely, too! It's such a relief to know that her digestive system's as it should be and her wound is healing really cleanly! She's also a beautiful Spider. You must be so proud! I'm proud and she's not even my girl :D

    I've never been happier to open a thread and see some snake poop, Tim! LOL What a relief it must be for you and Monica to see the evidence that she can properly digest food and pass feces. That's a major step in her recovery I would think. She's a lovely, lovely snake. :)

    Re: GRACEful Update.
    Thanks for all of the replies everyone. It was a major relief for us to know that she is in working order. Now we just need to get a little weight on her, as she was a small hatchling to begin with. I will definitely post more pics of her as she grows. Thanks to BP.net for all of the support and interest in our little Grace.

    You need to frame a step by step progress of her in you snake building to remind you of why you do what you do. :D

    Great GREAT job.

    I gotta admit I'm not particularly drawn towards spiders, however Grace is just glowing. She's a beautiful gal with some dedicated Godparents. I cannot make up my mind whether its her, or her situation that I'm drawn to, but nonetheless... AMAZING gal you got there. I am so happy to hear that her bowels are intact and she seems to be growing/healing well! Much kudos Tim & Monica!!!!!

    Re: GRACEful Update.
    Thanks everyone for checking in to see how she is doing. When I originally posted Grace's story, and all subsequent updates, I never expectd she would get such a following. I am, however, glad that she did, and will happily oblige everyone with updates as I see fit, or when someone asks.

    Sincerely,

    i feel good because there are so many good people like you but if only there were more people like you because then less animals would suffer and if pet shop owners were like you no one would complain about horrible people like petco (and some small business people)
