    - my awesome, practical, optimistic, affectionate, intelligent, charming friends
    - my team at work
    - the work I started continues even when I am unwell
    - I am able to stay warm, hydrated, and fed, and there are other people who have a worse version of my condition that can't do this. I am lucky to not have it as badly as them
    - I am grateful for being able to use my experience of depression to get my head around my physical & neurological condition faster

    Despite the weather, I am grateful that I am alive, if not kicking. I am still here

    Frogs are back in our pond. Found a baby and moved him closer to the pond as the dog might have been a bit too friendly with where he was.

    Re: Attitude of Gratitude2 anyone can come and join.

    Very pleased to have our dog back from the doggie hospital. He suddenly got very tired and wouldn't open one of his eyes. We took him to the vets and they found he had an eye ulcer. They kept him in over night and the next day rang us to advise we get him to an eye specialist straight away, they provided the referral. They checked him over and fitted a temporary contact lens to prevent the ulcer bursting. Another 5 days in doggie hospital having hourly treatments and he is back home now looking much better.

    I think the painkillers must have helped because he was much better in himself the day we rushed him to the specialist despite his eye looking much worse as confirmed by our vet who called us up.

    He just wanted to sleep all the time from feeling ill. He must have been in a fair amount of pain yet he didn't show it.

    We even called back down to talk him for a walk for a hour whilst he was still in there. They are very good at giving updates and allowing stuff like this so I'm grateful for all their work.

    Oh Terry, how worrying for you and your poor dog must have been in a lot of pain!

    So glad he is back home with you and I hope it wasn't too expensive an experience but I know that you will say that he's worth it and you're right!

    I can understand how grateful you must be to the specialist vets for making him better.

    Thanks pulisa

    Yes, it was worrying because he's nearly 12 now so before we took him we were hoping it wasn't his time to go.

    He's still on eye treatments every 6 hours, a daily antibiotic (he tries to spit tablets out) and a painkiller anti inflammatory mix (squirty syringe) daily. But we can see his eye is turning back to the previous colour. The red veins are showing today and he is having check ups every couple of days. Apparently the redness is a good sign in this case. The ulcer is clearly getting smaller and I think he can see better as he is less hesitant with close objects/jumping up stuff (he didn't seem to be able to see 6ft away when he was at the vets).

    The specialist said the eye drops our vet put him on for the red eyes he gets (started him over 6 months ago) are ok but if an ulcer occurs they actually make it worse. She advised them to switch to the one she prescribed us but said not all can get it but they would discuss options. It's great they talk to each other...something GP's & consultants seem to have a problem with (well, except on TV ).

    The good eye is also scarred though and this could always happen again. It's a known issue for his breed when they get old. But we are glad she looked at it (cut part of the flap away too to minimise further issues) because our vet said it was a nasty variety of ulcer and there would be a chance of losing the eye so we were worried when they called the next day saying it was worse. It looked all lumpy from the side.

    Pets are such brave little things. We would be moaning & groaning in pain and they just put up with it with far less fuss.

    Absolutely he's worth it. We have Petplan so we just had to pay the excess to each vet. It's about £160 per day to keep them in let alone the consults & meds. The referral overall with treatments was £310 so the insurance has helped loads. And with this being ongoing care it will help reduce the yearly meds cost as his eyes need drops all the time now and you know what insurers are like about taking you on with pre existing conditions.
