I had thought things were resolved.
Sheila posted the review, based on several things.
I'm only going to post about the dry eye.
Maxwell was seen by our Vet, on Oct. 1st and she noted immediately that his eye was very dry.
She did the Schirmer tear test on Maxwell's left eye, and he was not producing any tears in that eye, and he had a bacterial infection.
He was given antibiotics for the infection.
He had a 2nd Schirmer tear test on Oct. 8th, and he was still not producing tears.
Our Vet consulted with an Ophthalmologist at Purdue in West LaFayette, IN.
Maxwell was put on Tacrolimus drops & Puralube, and had his 3rd Schirmer tear test on Nov. 19th, his left eye showed a slight improvement, but his right eye was dry.
Yes, Judy and I e-mailed, and I talked with Sheila, and we agreed since we expected her to be in the hospital for surgery, that we would return Maxwell to Judy.
And yes, Judy did offer Maxwell back to us, but she also said he had a great new Mom waiting for him, and as much as Sheila wanted Maxwell back, when we found out that the surgeon felt it was in her best interest not to have surgery, but to remain on medication-Sheila did not want to hurt the lady that was so excited about getting him.
Judy-you were never slandered. Sheila only posted what we were told by our Vet.
As sad as Sheila is about not having Maxwell here with her, she is happy for his new Mom. |
