Update – on Emma’s prosthetic eye check up!
Hi Everyone: Thanks so much for thinking about Emma yesterday and slinging all the drool, but not near her fake eye. LOL
This is how we roll! Emma sits in the back with her Grandma. She still cannot figure out why she can’t see. She jumps up and looks out the window and then turns to us with a furrowed brow????
We take Emma to the All Animal Eye Clinic
Dr. Ketring is her doctor and he is very good. If you go to his website and click on meet the staff and then click on his name under Doctor, you can see why there are not that many Ophthalmologist. It takes forever to become one.
Emma waits her turn and as it turns out she has a small ulcer on her prosthetic eye and it is getting worse. Dr. Ketring did a few tests and changed her medicine. After spending 4 minutes with the doctor our bill was over 100.oo dollars.
So, again folks. This is a very expensive procedure and the costs vary throughout the country. Our section of the country I think is the most reasonable. We have spent thousands so far. Dr. Ketring will be this first to tell you. The prosthetic is only for the humans. It serves no purpose for the hound. I really liked it when she had sight in her other eye.
Well, you know I willl keep you posted. Emma is doing OK. Her family is still hurting. We all do the best we can.
More seeing with her heart and nose later….Emma Rudert, Cat and Chaps
Cat, I am just in shock right now!!!!
Cat, I had no idea that poor Emma had gone blind?! PLEASE PLEASE forgive me for not being there for you, as you’ve always been for me!
I wish you would have contacted me, I can’t imagine how hard this has been for you?!
Cat, I have to play catch up, and read all about poor Emma.
Please give Emma a big kiss from me!!
Love always,
Tawny & Angel Oakley (oh my poor sweet girl!)
