    Prayers for Emma

    These kittens are a rollar coaster!! I thank God each and every day that I work at a vet's office.

    We awoke yesturday to see Emma's inner eyelid (what she has of it) swollen and extended over almost 1/3 of her right eye. Her face next to her eye was puffy and she looked misrable.

    I took her to work with me, after wiping her eyes with a warm saline solution and giving her artificial tears and BNP w/ dex ointment several times Sunday.

    Dr. Martin did an ocular anesthesia (deadens the nerves in the eye for a short time) so he could look behind her eye. (Yea....ICK!! I was VERY close to passing out at this point...) He said that it looks like her current problem is the eyelid deformaties AND clamydia!!! How does a cat get that??? I'll be online tonight, searching for that one...

    It'll take many days for the swollen flesh inside her (OK, hate to be gross, but I don't know what else to call it) eye socket to go down and for her to start feeling better.

    PLEASE pray for her. I can imagine she's very uncomfortable. I just want to get her her surgery. I don't know how, but she needs it badly.

    I found that link Soledad (thank you!!) posted last week about this deformity in two cats in Monrovia, CA and found that that specialist is in Tustin...about two hours east of us. I think I'll be calling for an appointment for a consultation.

    Again, please think happy thoughts and send those PT prayers. I know He listens to us.
    ...RIP, our sweet Gini...

    Kelly, I'm so sorry to hear about baby Emma. Prayers and positive thoughts are on the way. Hopefully she'll begin to feel better soon and you'll be able to find a great doctor to help her with her eye problems. Please take care and keep us updated.

    Prayers on the way for little Emma!! Hugs to you Kelly for all you do. I was wondering how you were doing with all the fires down there. I'll be looking forward to reading some positive news soon.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Poor baby Emma!

    Hope all goes well with her. Will be keeping her in my prayers.

    Ps. I was worried about you Kelly, with all that fire in Southern CA. It isn't in your area is it? Stay safe!
