Update. Two weeks ago Lily had a 6 hour procedure to help her breathe. She developed aspiration pneumonia which can be fatal in itself, a few days later she developed surgical problems which needed emergency intervention to save her by clearing the swelling in her nose that caused a complete blockage and also by inserting feeding tube.
Lily has been home since last friday and because her immune system is so low she developed an infection at the site of her breathing tube.
When i say she is a miracke she really honeslty and truely is, she wants to be here and she keeps fighting, the only thing now is the funds which have my back up completely against a wall.
I changed her target to 6k from 4k as so far the complication bill is at 5.2k extra alongside her local vet bills which are not included in this figure.
There are a lot of scams around especially now considering the world of where it is, i dont want to put my personal details on here but if anyone is insure please reach out to me and I will respond privately. I have no problems showing full clarity or running through anything.
Background posted 1 week ago.
This poor little girl has suffered tremendously with ber breathing since she was 1.5 years old. She had BOAS surgery just over a year ago but it still didnt help enough. Over the past year I have spent many sleepless nights watching my little French bulldog struggle to sleep and often found her sitting up in the dark or kicking with frustration when she couldnt sleep at all. Other times she would sit and look at me and bed for help and there was nothing I could do. After going to several vets I was told she was the best she could be as she didnt appear bad during the day. I kept fighting and managed to get her a referral to a specialist. I found out on Thursday Lily still had grade 2 BOAS and a stridor which may be a potential larynx collapse which meant she was at risk of having to have a temporary trachea to help her breathe. I was so glad I knew her enough to know she was a very ill little girl.
Her insurance would not cover a second BOAS surgery as she already had one so the past few months I have saved and saved all I can to get her the much needed help she could get. I live on my own and I dont have any other means of help.
Lily come around from an almost 6 hour surgery yesterday, she had her soft pallete trimmed further, her nares widened again and her nose was almost completely packed up with turninates, she was doing well for a few hours but declined last night at 4am so I took her back..I was told this morning she is regurgitating and will need to be taken in at least for tonight and will need a drip. She is still a very poorly little girl. This is not included in the bill I paid yesterday of £5039.00. I have no idea how much more this will cost or even if she will another procedure. I have set an amount but may change this. I am panicking and so worried right now.
I am not one to ask for help, and I hate the thought of this but I have no idea how I am going to get through the next few days and no idea how I will raise enough to cover the rest of her care or another possible procedure. I am beyond distraught right now. I am so tired and emotionally completely drained. I stayed outside the hospital all day yesterday from 9.45 to 6 oclock as I didnt want to leave her. I couldnt go in but i felt better sitting outside in the car just to be close. I have slept 4 hours since Wednesday. If you can help in any way I would really appreciate it. I know these are hard times for people and people are struggling but any little bit you can will really help. £1/£2 any little thing would be appreciated.
It breaks my heart into tiny pieces to see her suffer, she has come so far. When she had all her turbinates removed, due to the swelling she cannot breathe through her nose and has to learn to use her mouth until she heals. This is so hard for her. This is being a very tough time for her. My heart is broken. She doesnt deserve this .
If she needs another surgical intervention right now i have no idea what I will do, so I am desperate for all the help she can get. I cant let her go this far to loose her now
