[QUOTE="MrBilly, post: 444385, member: 87"] There are at least two types of cancer eye. One is that which most here refer to - in the lids surrounding the eye. The other is cancer of the globe which is a cancer [b]within[/b] the eyeball itself. We had one of these last year. Had to vet see her, said choices are: surgery or put down. She also said I could not take to the sale barn since it would be rejected and would have to bring home. I knew it cost about $100 to bury, so how much, I asked, is the surgery? "$125," she said. "Let's go for it," I said. We did it, I assited, it was a messy procedure and the cow woke up in the middle of the procedure throwing instruments into the dirt, but it was successful once we got her sedated again. No infection, no recurrence. Cow was pregnant at the time and gave birth to a great calf and Mom is pregant again and will deliver in two months. PTL Billy [/QUOTE]
