Stichting Angel's Choice hasn't added a story.
Lunita is a handicapped dog rescued from the streets in Argentina and
after that rescued from her neglecting adopters in VS. After that she
found a loving forever foster home with a very determined and
experience mom and she managed to survive all medical issues emanating
from the neglect.
However a few months ago Lunita was diagnosed
with Laryngeal Paralysis. At that time her mom consulted a specialist
vet and he said surgery is possible when Lunita’s condition is good.
At the time it was decided not to go ahead with surgery. However the
last couple of days she has taken a turn for the worst. Her breathing
became very labored and she refused food and water. We thought her
death would be imminent, but Lunita is a fighter and she made it clear
she did not want it to be her time to go yet. She started eating again
and she is getting supplemental oxygen when she is having exasperation
episodes from the Laryngeal Paralysis. This makes her feel better and
able to sit up for a longer period of time.
Her mom spoke with
the surgeon who saw Lunita several months ago. He told her that he
thinks Lunita should go ahead and have the surgery for the Laryngeal
Paralysis she has. That because it's been about a year since her last
urinary tract infection, and that she's only been on 1 antibiotic for
a year now. Chances are her Immune System is a lot better than when
she was on all those different antibiotics and other meds. He said
there's always a risk with surgery. But having Lunita do the surgery
will really increase her quality of life. That dogs start breathing
normally immediately after surgery.
We feel that Lunita having
the surgery is really the best option at this point. And the surgeon
agreed to schedule her in for July 13th!
This leaves us one week
to raise the money for the surgery and after care, amounting to a
staggering quote of just over 3000 USD. We cannot let her foster mom
pay for this all by herself. Yes, we know, it is a huge amount of
money but when we posted about her ordeal a lot of people responded
and told us that they love her and are inspired by her.
We want
to give Lunita the chance to enjoy life and love for much longer
because the main part of her life she was not loved. And her sweet
face tells us she loves her life as it is now.
This fundraiser is organised by Dutch foundation Angel's
Choice. Every dollar donated will go to Lunita.
