Well, this weekend has not been good - Thursday night, I noticed Ace was having some eye troubles, watery, squinty, cloudy. Of course this was after the vet was already closed.

I took him in first thing in the morning, and he of course had a corneal ulcer, and it perforated. He will for sure be blind, and probably will lose his eye. :(

It happened so fast, and I don't know what I missed. I feel so awful for him :'(

Poor Ace! I know he will get used to the impairment if this is what happens but it's still sad.

We need all kinds of prayers and good vibes. Ace's eye is still the same, and he has till Monday to turn it around before we discuss enucleation. To the tune of $600.

He is on a host of meds, otoflaxin drops, serum drops, pain meds, chloromphenocol oral and chloromphenocol ointment.

He has to kick the infection and that eye has to break down on its own.

You wouldn't know a things wrong with him from the way he acts *knocks wood*

Not much change today. He was down an ounce or so tonight, so I gave him some CC.

I can't tell if he's acting odd, or if it's in my head.

Don't think the eye hurts, cause he scratches it. Maybe the Chloromphenicol is messing with his stomach? Beans look normal.
