Madelyn's Eye Status

I know that I normally update on funny things that the pups and Madelyn do and trust me there have been some funny stories recently. I will do that in my next post I promise. Instead I would like to give a little update on Madelyn.

As most of you know, Madelyn was born with a blocked tear duct in her left eye. The doctor had informed us that she might grow out of it by time she reached 9 months but unfortuatly she didn't. 2 weeks ago we had to take her to a specialist and have a probe stuck down her little eye to clear the blockage. She was a trooper! Smiling and giggling by time we got home but non the less it was heartbreaking to see her little eye all red, leaky, and bloody.

When we got back from the doctor. You can kind of see the redness in her eye



Well I guess the probe down her eye didn't clear it up and unfortuantly she will have to undergo another procedure. On June 21st they will have to stick another probe and ballon down her eye while she is asleep to try and clear it up again.


The great thing about Madelyn is due to the fact that she's been born with her eye goopy and runny she really doesn't know anything different. And I have to say she takes going to the doctor like a champ. Flirty and playful everytime we go!

Other than that, we are all doing very well! And by the way, mark your calenders for July 23rd since SOMEONE IS TURNING 1!! Does anyone else think that this first year just flew by?
