It's okay, it still hurts but loosing any animal does.
And to the OP, I am sincerely sorry if I worried you, What I have learned from my personal experience with bloody mucous and from reading other post it goes south quickly, my point was to re-enforce how serious it is.
You need to see a vet ASAP, if you tell them it's a emergency they should fit you in that day or even the next.
Again I apologize, I just don't want to see another, My snake died post.
