Last week I woke up with a sore eye again. I had eye drops that I usually use when my eyes are dry or start to look a little sore.
So a trip to the vets, which was weird experience in its self, I had to wait for the vet to come out and pick up me up from the car and take me in to be looked at. Sure felt weird going in with out mummy, she normally holds me and tells me it’s going to be all ok!
Turns out I have another ulcer in my eye :( I had surgery in 2017 to remove the lens part of my eye and replace it with a new lens. So in theory I shouldn’t of gotten another ulcer. This is the 4th ulcer since my surgery, so mummy asked to see a specialist as it makes me very unhappy and uncomfortable every time I get another ulcer.
I have an appointment with a special called an Ophthalmologist on Monday 15th, which alone the consultation is £220! I think mummy wishes she trained to be a vet like she wanted to do when she was little!
Last time surgery cost over £1600 which I am told is ALOT of money. Because the insurance won’t pay for it again, mummy has to pay for it herself, which she will do. However can’t really afford it. So for the first time ever she has asked people for help. If you can spare a pound or two she will be forever grateful!
Again thank you for helping mummy pay for my surgery!!

So far treatment is working very well, even though i'm not enjoying being chased around the house every 2-3 hours for eye drops. I am very much enjoying the morning ham treat, however it does have a little crush to it, so I think the hooman has been adding things to it, however I gobble it up pretty quickly!
I just want to thank everyone that has kindly donated to my Crowdfunding page so far. So far we have raised £222 which covered my Ophthalmologist consolation appointment fee last week. I have to go back on Monday 29th to see what the next steps are!
Thank you very much and loads of doggy kisses
