Gibby's Urgent Road to Recovery

Gibby has struggled with a deep inner ear infection for over a year. We made a road trip down to the specialist last year in hopes of fixing the issue. Unfortunately, the treatment he was given only helped temporarily. We woke up on the morning of March 20th, to Gibby crying in pain. He was unable to eat, move, or get comfortable enough to sleep. We knew something was terribly wrong. After sending a video of his behavior to the specialist, we were told we needed to make an emergency road trip to get him surgery that coming Monday, March 24th. We dropped everything and began our 26+ hour drive on Saturday, March 22nd. Following surgery, which involved removing his entire ear canal and leaving him deaf in one ear, we began our trip home and the recovery process.

Gibby is not a pet; he is a son and our world. We’d do anything for him. Due to the last-minute arrangements that were made to get him the care he desperately needed, we face a significant and unforeseen financial challenge as a result.

As of today, Gibby is recovering well and his incision is healing nicely. We can’t thank you enough for being so supportive and sending prayers during his recovery. We love you and are incredibly grateful to have you along our journey!
