Maddi!!!
Well I have been now going to the vet every week to get the pressure in Maddi's eye checked. last friday it was normal and then a different vet and the reading is very high. Im not happy that we are not keeping the pressure down in the only eye she has. She get 2 different drops for the pressure. One of them is given to her every 8 hrs and the 2nd one is given twice a day and has been moved to 3 times a day. So now I get to go back on Tuesday and see what the pressure is in the eye and if it is still high then they will want to remove the eye as well.
I just do not know what to think. Im upset that she has had so much problems with her eyes. I know that she is already blind in that eye but Im having sad thoughts about her getting around. If they remove the eye that means she will have the cone of shame on and she will run into more things than she is already. She is still very timid about walking around the house and she get so confused if you talk to her she will sit and be facing a different direction. She is happy when she hears you and she does not really leave my side. She uses me to help her get around. Im really having a hard time with this. I love her and of course I will have 7 more years with her since she is just now seven and middle aged for a dog. My heart breaks when she runs into the wall or into anything. Oh well I will have to find something about blind dogs and see if there is some way to teach her how to get around.
