Follow up visit to the vet

Angel’s eye is healing and is very itchy. She was rubbing it on her pillow and few stitches came
apart. The vet was worried that the eye might be rubbing against the remaining sutures so we had another visit to the vet. Angel is a true little angel. She gracefully and quietly waited on a couch in the waiting area. She gathered a small crowd applauding her spirit. But she just curled into a little ball. She really has a very nice, calm disposition. The vet checked her eye for ulcers but it was fine. However, when she was checking pupil dilation it was not responsive. We’ll see if the specialist can think of any way to help her see. We are going to see Dr. Sapienza in Long Island this Friday. Angel got a topical antibiotic to prevent any infections from starting but besides that the visible eye was left alone. I kept whispering to her ear how many friends she has and how much she is loved by everybody. A letter from a generous couple from Holly Springs, NC was waiting for her at the vet’s office; it reads “we hope this lovely young lady makes a quick recovery!” My wish exactly!
