UPDATE: Kobe is on a path to recovery but without proper wound care UF Animal hospital wanted to put Kobe down after saving his life for 30k, they said his extensive wound care would be an additional 20k..Kobe will be released into his primary veterinarians care instead and they will be doing everything in their power to help him. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts

Roxanne and Tommy Nelson are absolutely devastated over their 16 month old Kobe, being bit by a rattlesnake on his neck. He has been in ICU since Sunday. He has had 50 anti venom shots, 2 antibiotics and steroids were just administered. 1 week before this incident they lost their Sophie girl to old age she was 13. Please pray for Kobe and his family. Thank you for reading and we hope you can find it in your heart to donate even $5, it all adds up!
