Still Me Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) soooo I had known she had tiny cataracts....but in like one week her eye went white....and I went to the optometrist and they said she was a prime candidate for surgery....he also said it could happen to the other eye rendering her 100% blind....but this surgery is gonna cost me $6000... were using eye drops to control the inflammation...but if I don’t do this surgery she will need them twice a day for life... i started a go fund me.....I’m not exactly hopeful....but if y’all need me I’m gonna dive into art and cry about my baby going blind....feeling like an irresponsible pet owner like I could have fucking prevented genetics....

Vamped Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 6000 dollars what the fuck?! Are they making her a cybernetic eye?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two days before surgery I have to drop her off for some more testing which cost $175-$850 when I drop her off. Then the day of surgery I have to pay $3600 when I drop her off then $400 when I pick her up....then she has to be seen the next day at $88 a visit. Then again at the end of the week, end of the month...etc etc...and I’m also accounting for medicine and taxes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
