Help save Beanie ❤️‍

Donation protected
This is my dog Cocoa Bean. She is a type 1 diabetic who recently went into diabetic shock & has been struggling with diabetic ketoacidosis and pancreatitis. She had become insulin resistant to the type of insulin we were giving her and I did not know, so basically it was like she wasn’t getting her medicine for well over a month. A diabetic, especially a type one, not getting insulin resulted in her becoming extremely sick and developing ketones and pancreatitis. On the night before Halloween, she was rushed to the animal hospital where she spent four days consistently in the hospital undergoing multiple surgeries, treatments, and medicines to get her to a safe point of continuing care at home. After 4 days of continuous hospital care we managed to get her ketones down from moderate to small even though her sugar is still uncontrolled, and she was still labeled an uncontrolled diabetic. They let her come home, and now it requires a lot of care, attention, medicine, and treatments to continue monitoring her glucose levels, getting her to controlled levels again, and giving her the type of insulin she now needs. Every two weeks I have to replace a sensor on her back which alerts me if her levels go to alarming amounts, to prevent anything like this from happening again in the future. Unfortunately, all of these things that she needs to help her, including the literal insulin she needs every single day to keep her alive, costs extreme amounts of money, especially without pet insurance. She’s more than just a dog, she’s family and my best friends and I promised her I would try my best & do anything I need to do to get her better. I’m already well over $10,000 in bills from being in the hospital for four continuous days, so I can’t stop now. Anything donated would be incredibly appreciated in helping me afford her insulin, her sensors, and her pancreatitis treatments. Thank you to everybody who has donated, and I am in hopes that we are on the right track to getting her better. Please share this with anybody you know that could help!
