I am having major abdominal surgery in October.
IF everything goes well, and that's a big IF given many factors, I won't be able to lift anything heavy - like a big snake - for a month.
Katie (@sunshinewalker) is going to be helping with the reptiles as I will not be doing much bending, lifting, or reaching either.
Very nervous about it and worried about the crew. If things do not go well, it is an even bigger issue.
Additionally, the reptiles are not going to be Katie's number 1 priority as she has her own health issues and will be helping me.
I plan to reach out to some folks in the area, but it seems someone I was talking to about helping with the reptiles has become unresponsive. Our Dogsitter is good with reptiles and used to work in a zoo and can help as well.
I will also feed all the snakes prior to surgery as that's not something Katie wants to do - especially the bigger snakes. They will be fine for 3-4 weeks +/- anyway.
Anyway, thought I'd share.
Hope everyone is well in BP.net land!
