One of our very good dawg friends, Belle, is having surgery today to remove her left eye. She's had a lot of trouble with it lately. The medications for maintenance aren't working any more and her eye is really hurty now. The V-E-T said that it would eventually rupture, so her mom and dad decided to have it removed before that happened. Any thoughts and purrayers are really appreciated.
UPDATED (4:30 pm): Belle's surgery went well. Here's part of her mom's e-mail to Momma:
I just called them (the V-E-T) a few minutes ago and they told me they were debating on whether to send her home tonight. They asked if I had a place to keep her confined (I have a small cage all ready for her.) I told them I did and she said that she will do better at home. She is just really out of it still. They have a patch on her eye with a pressure bandage.
Her mom and dad and human brothers are going to pick her up at 5:30 tonight. Please keep them in your thoughts and purrayers. They've had three dawgs cross the Bridge in the last 1-1/2 years and her mom is really askeered that something will happen to her, too. Thank you very much for all your thoughts and purrayers and kind words. Momma has passed them on to Belle's mom.
