SICK DOG NEEDS HELP

Can you help Daisy before her time runs out?

Daisy lives in Edmonton. She is very ill. The lymph glands in her neck are swollen, she won't eat, is very thirsty and drinks, but vomits it right back up.

She is becoming weaker and thinner day, by day.

Daisy is the joy of her family's lives.. Her family consists of a single mom  and  her adult son. The mom lost her job almost a year ago. She   is responsible for and cares for her adult son who was born with spina bifida and struggles with severe and debilitating depression.

They live a very simple and meager life. They use public transportation,  have rented out the extra room in their home and do without anything but the basics. With barely enough to live on,  they have somehow managed to create a happy home life..

When you  walk into their house the first thing you notice is the love. It envelopes you like a warm breeze. Daisy greets everyone with a wagging tail and climbs up on the sofas to snuggle and be a part everything that happens. Her presence in this family is enormous.

The groups and associations, including the rescue organisations, we have contacted in Alberta cannot help unless Daisy is surrendered. This family has no extra money to take Daisy to the vet, even on a payment plan. The vet clinics I've contacted won't see her, even for a consultation, with out charging them.

I can't imagine the distress it would cause Daisy to be given up when she is already distress by her illness.
Nor can I imagine how heartbreaking and stressful it would be for her owners, especially for the young man who's had Daisy faithfully at his side, through his own illness.

I cant afford to take on Daisy's veterinary care alone, maybe as a community of pet owners we can come together and assist Daisy in getting the care she so desperately needs.

Please, if anyone  has any ideas or solutions, send Barbara or Roy or myself an email.

Thank you!
