morning everyone hope you're doing well eric here from nomadic fanatic as i mentioned in my
last video i'm taking a little bit of a break from disney to take care of something else
uh so today is the day i hopefully go get my eye looked at by a specialist so it'll be a different
different kind of day than doing disney parks thanks for joining me guys i will be uploading
this video with snomed internet link below in the video description if you need some mobile
internet in case you haven't been following the saga of this eye infection that
uh comes and goes and then comes back randomly and then antibiotics kind of help but it never really
goes away it's it's this left eye of mine it's on the top lid and on the bottom lid and right now
it's in one of its dormant stages i guess you'd call it this is this is what happens after i get
the antibiotics and the ointment and it kind of the swelling goes down it's not so noticeable
but it's always noticeable well i have a friend here mickey is her name that's what she goes by
she knows an eye specialist here so we're gonna get started with that and she's going
to take me over to the office and i'm going to go have an eye specialist an op not optometrist
opt i'm terrible with those medical terms anyway an eye specialist so that's what we're doing today
i'll give you some updates throughout the day also i'm i'm struggling right now
here in florida to find out how to take care of jax's vaccines he needs his three-year rabies
shot he needs a booster and just another wellness exam to see how he's doing unfortunately here so
far around the orlando area all of the vets around here they won't let you be with your pets it is
you park your car they come out they take your pet and then they call you when your pet is done
that does not work for my kitty cat and i keep trying to explain to people it's like
i have to be there with him he will tear you a new one if i am not right there with him
he's not happy they've got three technicians out there working on him a couple of the vets i even
gave my youtube channel links to him like yeah look this is what happens if i'm not in the room
with him this is what happens and how pleasant it is if i'm there with him and so far every
vet i've talked to will not allow me to be in the same room with jax and i'm struggling as to
how to take care of that wondering if i should wait and make him late
on his vaccines by a couple weeks to get into a different state that has different rules or
anyway struggling with that right now you never would have thought that would have been a problem
during the virus thing going on but yeah i can't be in the same room with my kitty cat so get back
in a little bit right now and relax in the hot tub all right before we get started on the road here
i mean just address one thing no i'm not at fort wilderness any longer i didn't didn't make a video
and showing when i left or anything but everyone's losing their minds because i'm not at fort
wilderness uh no i'm not and it's gonna be okay i'm not gonna talk about it because it's pretty
pretty ridiculous it's just a spot to park right now but uh before we take care of my eye stuff
i'm just gonna document this so that you guys know what what's going on here uh in in 2021 so
again jax needs some leukemia shots he needs his three-year rabies and he needs a wellness to see
how his health has been doing and his weight loss and everything so as as a traveler looking to get
this done on the road with a new vet because the last one i got done was in texas a year ago
i called 27 veterinary clinics in the orlando area with a 50 mile radius of of here so 27 of
them um six of them were in no answer i talked to 21 okay and of those 21 every single one of
them is no exception drop off only you do not get to come inside you don't get to be with your pet
the so that's period in florida also the soonest appointment that i can make just
for annual vaccines is february 17th i got a bunch of dates but the soonest
is february 17th a month away and you know so as a traveler you have to look at that and it's like
you almost can't be spontaneous okay if you have a pet you're not allowed to live spontaneous because
i don't know where i'm gonna be in three days let alone a month from now how do you plan something
like that like okay i'm gonna go south and come will i be in another state in a month like
it's really tricky um i i thought back home in washington state we used to have walk-in clinics
where you could just kind of get on a waiting list that's that's not the case here in february right
now but also i just wanted to point out that because of the virus thing going on right now
that's why the clinics are filling up somewhat so much faster because
they're only letting in like one-third of the pets that they usually normally would allow
and you can't come in so it's just and i don't know what to do i've been over this and over this
at parks even the park i'm at right now you have to have valid accurate up-to-date vaccines
now some of us are just kind of hoping that it's like well look you're not letting us get in to
do it so can we get like a week extension or something like that but it's tough and i don't
know what i'm going to do right now if i make this february 17th appointment that that means
that despite all my plans coming up i'm going to have to make sure that i come back here in a month
for the appointment or do i keep calling in other states in the future and just have jax be late so
it's frustrating we're all living through different things that are affecting our normal
lives and so i'm just sharing you that information uh the vets the vet offices in florida are are not
working properly right now is i guess all i'm trying to say okay and i don't know what i'm
gonna do about that but let's hop in tater tot and go get my eye looked at okay after giving it some
thought i'm going to come back to this tomorrow i'm going to call some more places much much
farther south of here and see if there if they can crunch that time frame better than february
17th for me if they can't then yeah i'm gonna have to i'm gonna have to go and book this appointment
change my plans for the whole month based on my kitty cat and come back to orlando boo hoo but you
gotta you gotta do what you gotta do so not like i could have done this any better because you have
to realize that once i came south from illinois into mississippi i was supposed to go west y'all
yeah i changed my mind that very same night to come east and come to florida instead so it is
really tough for me to make plans a week out let alone months and months out really tough for me
to do that and i got lucky that disney is just so dead right now with the pandemic scares that
it's just wide open you know so i got lucky it anyway get back here in a little bit
60 mile per hour wheelies all right six and a half hours later all right hi guys so yesterday was
a long day i went to see the opt i don't know what it's called i'll put it down here and uh
dr johnson strapped me in there and investigated the eye really closely did a bunch of tests and uh
made it a little uncomfortable at times but he he really ripped in there and drained it quite a bit
and basically said that the next step would be to see a specialist except that even when you
go see the specialist that i could refer you to they're still going to tell you that for the next
two months you're going to do this procedure yourself soak it and really i want to mention
that at one point the doctor actually said show me how you do your warm compresses i'm like oh
okay so i went to the sink in the office got the warm and went like that and did it and he said
you're only putting in about one tenth of the force i want you to massage the eyelid
to really break that up so the final thing is yes it is um an infection that's been ongoing now the
antibiotics have been helping but the problem is there's nowhere for the antibiotics and the fungus
to go because my glands inside here like the tear ducts and glands have not been producing the right
kind of oils for my eyelids so the next two months i'm going to be working the eye really well going
through everything he told me to and if in two months it's not gotten significantly better then
i will have to go see another specialist later on down the road i'm not worried about that right now
things are looking up i got a lead on getting jacks into a vet that will allow me to be
there with him in the office there so i'm excited about that and as you can see we got some some
water here uh it's been a while since i've seen some florida water and it really makes me smile
i i want to bring this up again guys because it's been a while since i've mentioned this
