A sugar glider rescue

We already have 2 adoption stories added to the web site. They are at www.lifelongtails.org under "adoption stories"
Last night we had an urgent call about a female sugar glider. She had an eye problem and the owner was unable to afford the vet bills. She surrendered the girl along with her "life partner" male, their names are Bonnie and Clyde. The poor girl is unable to open her eye, and it swelled up to twice it's normal size. The swelling made that side her head look completely unporportioned. I did get an appointment for her to be seen today by Dr.Tomaschke. Dr.T first started by numbing the area, so it wouldn't be too painful for her. Then he started pushing on the area, immediately a thick, smelly puss started coming out. Dr.T continued evacuating the area of all puss, and it was A LOT for a little girl! He did need to open up some pockets to get the puss out ( sorry if this sounds too graphic) He did his best to get a look at the eye, but through the inflammation, puss and her third eyelid covering the eye, it was tough. Dr.T is fairly certain that the eye is okay, but we will will have to wait for the infection to clear up to see the eye better to make sure their aren't any corneal abrasions or ulcers. Dr.T said she basically has an abscess surrounding her eye, he checked the inside of her mouth to make sure the abscess didn't originate from there, but her mouth and teeth look perfect. She'll probably need the area cleaned out of puss again, and she is on antibiotics. Once I got home with the sick girl , I gave her the first dose of antibiotics then placed her in her cage. I was happy to see her grab a grape slice and munch away. She was probably still numb and pain free :)
If anyone would like to donate to help with medical expenses and care for Bonnie, please e-mail me at rachel@lifelongtails.org and I'll direct you as to how you can donate. My hopes are for her to recover 100 percent and be adoptable.
