Here is my girl Daphne in her surfer/board shorts. Cute right?
Except they are on here to hold a huge gauze pad in place. Daphne had eye surgery 10 weeks ago. She got her cone off on Wednesday and went for a groom on Thursday. It was during this groom that a tumor was discovered, about half the size of my pointer finger. I think the groomer nicked it. Not her fault she did not know it was there. I should have known it was there. I was so wrapped up in the 10 weeks of 5 different drops in the eyes 6 times a day to help her keep her eye.
I saw the vet when I picked her up from the groom. She said it is def a tumor. She also said "Daphne is 14 and has a lifespan of 15-16 so just ignore it"
I had to stop and catch my breath after hearing that.
By the next morning it was bleeding. Two regular bandages held things together got a while. By that evening it was seriously bleeding and a giant wad of gauze had to be changed about every two hours.
Monday morning Daphne went to an Animal Hospital that I trust. Surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning. They will remove it and off it will go to pathology while I wait for the report to come back. I am distraught.
