Donna I've learned through Miss Mia, my deaf dog...that as long as they are loved, and feel gentle hands, cuddled and cared for...they don't mind being deaf or blind...our pups just want to feel loved and cared for, Molly may not see but she is being loved and cared for right? I hope your in contact with the new family...perhaps if they don't want to take her on with this new diagnosis, you may want to hold her again?
Miss Mia often makes me lay down (shes got the power) just so she can lay across my chest and put her neck on my mouth, she will push down until I start humming...yes humming...this makes her relax and feel secure, I don't know why, it just does...
I'm trying to say, though deafness and blindness are not what we want for our babies, they don't mind, all they ask for is to be cared and to be allowed to give YOU unconditional love...
I'm sorry your going through this and feeling like this...I wish I could say something to make you feel better.
