@turtlehospital: A Little Update on Harlow’s Condition 🐢 We are still treating her for low blood glucose. Her levels dropped low into the 40s yesterday when it should be about 100 mg/dl. So we have added lobster tails to her diet (she loves them) and she’s now also receiving TPN via IV with her fluid treatments. 🦞 TPN, (total parenteral nutrition) is a method of feeding, that provides nutrients to a patient through an IV. The TPN we use is specially formulated for Loggerhead sea turtles. ❤️‍🩹 Thank you for following Harlow’s story and please, keep the prayers and positive energy going! 💙🏥 #connectandprotect #compassioniscontagious #rescuerehabrelease #seaturtlerescue #loggerheadseaturtle #loggerhead #turtle #turtlehospital #marathonturtlehospital #theturtlehospital #sea #seaturtle #loggerheadturtle #Science #nature #turtletok #ocean #beach #seaturtlehospital #seaturtlerehab #wildlife #floridakeys #STEM #education #animals #fyp #barnacles #seaturtlebarnacles #glucose #Harlow

Do you know why her glucose keeps dropping? She may not be able to go back out in the ocean.

Do you think if you used a 50/50 mixture of baking soda and water and paint there shells the barnicals would fall off? Of coarse do a small test area!

Her eyes look so much better! What about the remaining barnacles. Could they be hiding an issue with her shell?
