The last picture of Tank you posted made my heart just break for you. It's so obvious how much you love on him.
Did you try the moist towel suggestion made by Gwen ? It seems simple, but who knows.
The flashing for extended period of time is a conundrum. Wonder if he's just sexually frustrated and feeling the need? Again seems stupidly simple, but hell we humans can get out of sorts about nonsense, so why not torts?
I really do keep hoping for a positive update and was cheering for Tank when he finally got to the point the tube could be removed. This next set of roadblocks is just gut wrenching for me, and I'm sure everyone else here to read.
As you said, lots of positive energy is being directed at you and Tank so know that your story is heard and you have support. Keep loving on Tank, and whatever the outcome he has obviously been adored.
Chin up tort-momma, fight isn't over till its over so keep doing your best
Two kids, One husband, One Hines57, One Leopard Tortoise, and a room at the sanitarium lol
Thanks for your support! It really helps to know people are thinking of him and hoping & praying that he pulls through this. It's pretty much all I have to keep me going with this and the seldom moments when does something normal.
I appreciate it so much!
He slept last night with some sugar paste on his man parts. After I soaked him this morning it seemed to be doing better, only poking out a tiny bit. Then he ate a little bit of watermelon this afternoon which he struggled to do and ate a bite or two of romaine. After he tried eating, I noticed it was out all the way again and he was sitting there with his hind legs up so he could stay off it. I'm starting to wonder if something could be wrong with his mouth and it's causing him pain when he eats. Maybe the pain from eating made him strain which pushed it out more? It's a puzzle to me why this is happening. I noticed that near the corners of his mouth, near his jaws, he has what looks to be swollen bumps on either side. One side is bigger than the other. I will post some pictures as soon as I give him some time to relax and recover from the traumatizing honey-on-penis episode we just had.
Does anyone know about these bumps? Have you seen them before? In the pictures I've looked at to research this, I haven't seen anything quite the same.
