Her issue is an ulcer on her cornea. Ordinarily this is easily healed and everything is back to normal within a few days. She has had several in the past that healed just fine. This time it's different. Blondie was a foundling. She came running up to us in the park, skin and bones, covered in fleas and ticks. We took her home and cleaned her up. We also discovered that she had a dry eye. This is a common problem for these dogs, but it is manageable. The sad thing is that she has very little sight in that eye, but has gotten along just fine...till now.
Now, due to an error on the vet's part, she is not healing, and may lose the sight in this eye as well. She has an appointment with the eye specialist to see if they can fix the problem. If not, she will be blind. She has already lost a lot of the sight in the good eye. I am hoping against hope that she will recover.
I am very angry that she is in pain. It is not fair for her. Of course I know life is not fair, but it is much more difficult to accept when the recipient of the unfairness is such an innocent little thing. Poor girl.

I am with you sister---I would help you beat ol girls ass if it made you feel better---it would surely be a sight to see.
I am so sorry, I hope some of her vision can be salvaged or she adjusts well.
I know with you working on her, she will do as well as possible
I am so sorry for both you and Blondie. I hope they can save the eye and at least make her comfortable.
