| Poor little TJ has to have his eye closed.. If you all remember, about 2 wks ago, I was asking advise on how to get drops and oniment in TJ's eye; vet said he had a little "ulcer" on his eye from sticking something in it. Well we finished up all the meds this past Thursday. Last night he start sqinting that little eye again. I started up the the drops again and called the vet this morning and he wanted to see him. Seems the "ulcer" has gotten bigger and he wants to "close his eye". The way he described it, he will pull up the third eyelid and pull down the top lid and it will be closed someway....not sure how that is done, he won't stitch it but he said it would be closed with rubber things on the top and bottom, and it'll stay that way for 2 - 3 weeks! I'll have to describe this better tomorrow after I pick him up this afternoon. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? I just hated leaving my baby there. Thing is, I was hoping to get a neuter appt. this week, instead we have to do this. Please keep my little TJ in your prayers. |

| That is terrible, what happened to him? Will his eye have to stay that way? I will definitely be thinking of you both. Good luck! |

| Poor little guy. I hope his eye heals up fast and he's back to normal in no time. It's so hard when they are so small. If only they could understand. Prayer's coming for TJ. |

| No, it won't have to stay that way. Vet said after 2 -3 wks, he should be good as new.....but, I still worry about him. And on top of that, he and my oldest baby have started having agression problems. TJ is 6 mos, so I was really hoping to get him neutered this week. |

| update on TJ After almost 3 weeks, we got the stitches out today. Now TJ can look at me with both of his sweet little eyes. I'll have to take him next week for a final check; but hopefully all is well. |
