Emily and Judy,
Thanks for those 2 recommendations, as that is exactly what I have been looking for. I'll have to do a little research and see if I can't find one of those two products.

Steve and Jo,
Thanks for the replies and prayers. As for food, I did try to feed her a very small fuzzy mouse yesterday. She wanted nothing to do with it, which I guess is good and bad. Good, because it could put undue pressure on the wound, but bad, because she does need some food. At the moment, I don't know exactly what I am going to do, as I know that I have plenty of hatchlings go 6 to 8 weeks without eating, before they decide they are hungry, or get assist fed. So, I know she will be ok for a while. If, she seems to be healing well after about six weeks, and still has not eaten, then I may try to assist feed her. If she does not look like she is healing well, then I will probably start feeding her with a pinky pump.

To everyone else,
Thanks for all of the comments and advice, as it has all come in very helpful while taking care of this little girl. Even the small things are overlooked by Monica or myself, when I am trying to think of all of the scenarios, and all of the special care that she needs.

I do have to say, that I will probably not post any updates on this girl for a while, as my plan at the moment is to leave her alone for at least a week, so that her heart reatr doesn't go up and put stress on the hernia. With Chicago coming up next weekend, it may be about 10-12 days for I post another update. However, I will continue to post improvements or declines if I happen to see any until then.
