Harley suffered an unexpected medical crisis roughly 8 weeks ago.  He had a severe bought of uveitis and glaucoma that quickly rendered him blind. At the same time Harley, who was understandably confused, started refusing to drink water (it was scary because he couldn't see it). This led to dehydration and a dehydration colic despite our best efforts to turn him around prior to the colic. Initially, Harley took his lack of sight really hard and was having a difficult time with any daily function. Not long after the dehydration colic, we noticed that he was having kidney issues and almost immediately after the kidney issues presented, he had a horrible case of colitis. Needless to say, It was a rough couple of weeks.  He pulled through although there were a few times when we entertained the idea that perhaps humane euthanasia might be the right choice. Ultimately with all of the medication doing its job and his body starting to settle back down, Harley decided that he wanted to live and he established a new routine and  began to put back on the weight he'd lost during his severe health episodes. We thought we were out of the woods and that he'd be able to keep his eyes even though he couldn't see out of them.  It turns out that he CANNOT keep his eyes. They have started to deteriorate rapidly and we are at the point that they need to be surgically removed so that he can go back to living his new life peacefully. So, we are fundraising for Harley's eye removal surgery which will cost about $2500. While removing his eyes sounds pretty harsh and dramatic, Harley is already blind so the only thing they are doing is causing him pain. If we thought that this is not something Harley wanted, we would not be even considering surgery, but we do believe that he wants to move forward.
