We are happy to report that Matilda’s eye is doing much better! The swelling has gone down a lot – she can actually see out of it!

Matilda, a senior mammoth mule, sustained an injury this morning that looked pretty bad.  It was obvious the eye lid was ripped apart but we couldn’t tell if the eye had been injured.

Dr. Specht came out and treated it and, fortunately, the eye is ok.

After 2 hours and over a dozen stitches the injury looks much better – Dr. Specht did a great  job!Matilda Better

Now we hope and pray it holds and heals nicely.  Matilda will have at least a couple of follow-up visits from the vet and we’ll update on her healing process over the next few days.

It’s been a long day and believe me when I say we’re all ready to call it a day here.

Thank you all for your support!

We have an emergency of the eye kind! Matilda has ripped her upper eye lid apart and we can’t tell if the eye is damaged – she’s very sensitive about it. We are waiting on vet to come out. Can anyone help with her emergency vet bill? Poor Matilda! Please pray that her eye is ok!
