If you have men who will exclude any of God's
creatures
from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who
will deal likewise with their fellow
man.

Subject: Bandy's eye appt.
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to update you all on Bandy's eye appointment last
Thursday..We finally have some good news..and the doctor was even
shocked...His eyes have improved..So for the moment, he can see some..He isn't
running into things or being as cautious as he was 2 wks ago...His eyes aren't
cloudy right now either...So we are on a maintenance dose of the prednisolone
acetate and atropine...He gets the pred drops twice daily and atropine once
daily now...we do a re-check if all is well in July otherwise I am to call if
there is any change between now and then...He will have to remain on the drops
the rest of his life though and the dosage adjusted according to how he
responds...He said the fibrin clots were gone, but he has some scarring on the
retina due to all of this...It is just part of his disease or I guess that is
the cause of it..They did a toxo test, but it was negative..I think he was
checked for this last August, too. Anyway, I am happy that he can see
some...He is now climbing on things again..but he can't judge distance too
well...I watched him yesterday, and he was very cautious about getting
down...I guess he will learn how to deal with all of this...I am thinking
about getting some pads to put on the floor near where he climbs so he won't
hurt himself again...He likes to climb so I don't want to take that away from
him...
Anyway, head butts to all and hope your kitties are doing good
today..
