Bear had his surgery yesterday and is still feels tired from the tranquilizer. We need to confinue antibiotics and pain drops for a week, and then we have a follow up with the specialist. Poor baby got Elizabethan collar to wear 24-7 and he is not happy.
I wonder if the first vet just missed that or what? That is so scary that a baby can have something wrong with his eye that gets missed by a regular vet for so long. Gives me a sinking feeling in my stomach.
