Help Ginny the blind pig see again

Donation protected
Hey everyone , as many of you know we have a resident pig named Ginny , who many of you have met on farm tours , she is unfortunately blind and has cost us close to $5,000 in surgery’s to date , the last surgery was a success except the stitches broke during the healing process and the incisions failed to fuse resulting in her not being able to see. She came to us 3 years ago and was 100kg overweight and was deemed “fat blind” meaning she had huge rolls of fat over her eyes , her initial surgery was removing 16cm from her face and giving her a facelift , that surgery was a success and she healed well , we then allowed her to roam the paddock and lose some weight naturally for her next surgery which was to pin her ears back and give her a ear tuck , for the first time in 3 years she could see and was a very happy pig , unfortunately 2 weeks later the stitches gave way and the incisions hadn’t been able to fuse in time. This time around the surgeon has prepared an operation that cannot fail , but it comes at a cost , $500 per ear and she can only have one done at a time as they do not want her to be under anaesthetic for to long due to her weight issues. We rarely ask for help from the public but we cannot currently achieve this on our own , if you are able to help it would be greatly appreciated
