Teddy was admitted to Tufts University vet hospital last night through their ER. The abscess behind his eye was getting bigger and more swollen. He's going to be put under general anesthesia today for a CT scan and treatment. The situation in the eye is too close to the optic nerve and brain to wait any more time and the medications aren't working. The diagnosis is abscess vs swelling vs other (other as in eye tumors). They are not sure if this is related to the dental extractions or something else. We will know more after the CT scan.

Please keep Teddy in your prayers today.
