Its that time of year again

Last year, around this time, I lost my pet rat Ooogie. I came home from work. He was dead and his cagemate soon followed. You can see why although I love this time of year I've been dreading it in a way.
And now my pet rat Squeaky is sick.
Mum took him to the vets because I was working (crap), the vet checked his pupled for blindness. Nope, Squeak isn't blind. He pressed (wtf?!?) on Squeak's eyes to make sure there was no pressure behind them. Nope, no pressure. The vets not too sure, but he thinks it might be an infection. So Mum and Squeak were sent away with anitbiotics and anitflamitrys.
But why is Squeak acting like he's blind? You give him a treak, one of his favourite treats, and it's like he's forgotten how to hold it. He drops it then scrabbles around maddly for it.
I don't want to loose him and I'm worried sick.
Right now he has burrowed under his bed and is scrabbling at the floor of his cage.
I don't know why I'm posting this here, because I know nobody reads this blog.
But I'm worried sick and I had to talk about it with someone.
