Please help Alice!  Alice was rushed to the hospital yesterday in such severe pain that she was totally unable to stand.  Since then she has been sedated on IV pain medication.

After 24 hours and the introduction of steroids, Alice
is still in severe pain and unable to stand.  Her routine blood work has come back normal so now the hospital is investigating tick exposure and immune disorders as potential causes for such terrible pain.  Alice will be spending the next several days in the hopsital while the results of the further tests come in and we need help with the mounting hospital bills.

Anyone who has had the chance to meet Alice knows what a special, sweet, kind , gentle, and loving soul she is.  She is part of our family and we love her SO much.

If there is anything you can spare please know that it is appreciated from the bottom of our hearts.
