DaisyDoodle Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Day 2 Eating his dinner He's looking greyt. Please give him lots of hugs for me What was that line and little ball hanging from his collar? I wondered if he was getting blood (or something else) or if the line was to capture something coming out (like a drainage tube). I've never seen anything like that before.

Its a JP Drain to help drain excess fluid. It helps to minimize swelling.

I wondered if he was getting blood (or something else) or if the line was to capture something coming out (like a drainage tube). I've never seen anything like that before. Funny you ask that. When I saw Carrier for the first time, they explained everything to me that was attached to him (and there was so much, as you can see) and what it was for. Dr Couto called it an "argentinian prosthetic". He's from Argentina . He said, "It's all we could afford" Too funny... we were laughing a lot - it helped to stay positive But, yes it's a drainage tube and the little plastic ball is where the fluid goes.
