Help 6 month old Luna get out of the hospital

Donation protected
We're helping to raise funds for Ted Hamilton, in the skate community we know him as DVS ONE. He has been in the derby community since 2009, he's done a lot of volunteering for Sin City Roller Derby and Rollercon every single year.

We're making this because we would like to show how grateful our community is for all that he's done. His puppy is in need.

His little puppy Luna is 6 months old and has been in and out of the vet since May. She hasn't been able to hold down food and the cause was unknown, even after $2000 for tests. After 4 days of having to stay in the hospital, she was diagnosed with Cryptosporidium, a parasite that has caused her to have excessive diarrhea and not be able to keep any kind of food down. Her dad has tried just about everything, cooking her meals, wet foods, pumpkin puree. The Vet finally put her on liquid Azithromycin. He got to finally take her home after 7 days in the hospital on a feeding tube. She was able to keep a little bit of chicken down but she's already lost a terrifying amount of weight. She ended up having to go back to hospitalization to get back on a feeding tube, once she's back on IVs she will have a GI Endscope. Still awaiting test results as of now but she successfully made it through surgery to put a better feeding tube in her throat. We're all grateful for the progress she's made but it has been slow and it has been extremely expensive to try and keep all of this going. Ted is going over $7,000 for Luna. Yesterday's surgery was 900$ alone. The endoscope today or tomorrow will be 2k a day. Everything includes a 350$ hospital day. It's been extremely scary and difficult to get Luna back to being the happy puppy she was. She's full of life and wants to play but her spirit has been crushed since she's been hooked up to machines and tubes, not being able to eat or go home. Please help with whatever you can so we can all see her back home reunited with her dad and siblings that miss her so much. Please share. Anything helps!
