    So traumatic :( Dogs are so incredibly stoic. What a brave girl.

    Oh Kate, how simply dreadful.

    On the plus side, dogs are incredibly resilient creatures and I'm sure Millie will be out and about with Sam again in no time.

    Gosh, what a horrible ordeal for Millie and for you too. How is your hubby doing with all this? I know he and Millie are especially close. :'(

    At least they know what the trouble is and are treating it. Praying that the other eye will be okay! I hope you all will be able to get some sleep tonight.... :-\

    Thank you for all the good wishes , we are expecting a call from Mr.Warren the surgeon this morning with an update . Coming home depends on how she is but also how the other eye is looking this morning , if it is more inflamed then she will have to stay put , poor Sam is looking for her, he is as miserable as we are xx

    She is home ;D This was a melting ulcer , called so because the bacteria literally eat the cornea which melts quickly , hence the emergency surgery . The surgeon is hopeful to have saved some sight , we don't yet know how much , they used membrane from around her own eye to make a sort of patch which will always be visible but this doesn't matter . She goes back to the hospital on Tuesday for a post op check up and for now, its on lead walks only but she can have long walks after today , thank you for all your good wishes for Millie, very much appreciated xxx
