If anyone remembers from my previous post Ziggy was diagnosed with melanoma in his left eye a couple months ago. He had his follow up appointment today and the vet said she saw some spreading so we have to remove the eye soon in order to save his life. we set the appointment date to November 8, I'm so sad about it, but I know its the best for him. any words of support or advice would be very much appreciated


Ziggy also has a myspace: http://www.myspace.com/zgyzig

Awww Ziggy, he will adjust quickly to having one eye, I know there are people on here that can relate to this and they should be along soon to talk to you. Many prayers for you and Ziggy for a successful operation

thanks so much I'm all teary-eyed. I will definitely post an update and pictures after the surgery is over. they said they will give him an implant and sew up his eyelid so it will keep the shape of his face the same, he'll just look like he is permanently winking.
