Yesterday I got a very uncomfortable pain in my abdomenIt was there all dayAnd got worse after I purgedI went to bed early last nightHoping it would be gone by this morningBut it wasn'tIt was still as sore when I got up this morningI told my doctorHe checked me overAnd said I had probably strained my stomach while purgingHe prescribed me some meds And I went on my way
After I collected my medsWe had to go to the vetAfter Honeys last appointment at the vet on FridayHer eye began to deteriorateIt was very redVery glazed and glassyAnd she developed a little black bubble on the upper part of her eyeballStraight away the vet said it didn't lookBut she couldn't actually say what it wasThe vet did a test to see if she still had sight in her eyeAnd it turns out that she is blind in that eyeMy heart sank when I heard thisI didn't want to hear any more
The vet said that we would continue with her meds until FridayWhen we go back for a follow up appointmentAnd if there's no improvementShe will refer is to an eye specialist in Derry Which is about 3 hours away
The vet really gave us no answersShe made the point that a vet is like a doctorThey don't specialise in anythingAnd so she didn't want to say too much until we see how she gets on this week
I left the vet feeling so disheartenedEven though the vet said that dogs can live a perfectly happy life with one eyeI still feel sorry for Honey
We will do everything we can to keep Honey comfortableShe will be thoroughly spoiled and pamperedSo I guess we just wait and seeAnd hope for the bestThat's all we can do For now
