5/26 UPDATE DIRECT FROM Tammy Galarza

Well we ended up at the ER per the vets recommendation,Chris my nephew my rock idk where I'd be without him he picks me up off the floor whenever I fall,cooks,cleans,helps with fur babies. He turned 19 May 8th sadly couldn't get him anything he said he didn't want anything except to stay here in our apartment. But he deserves the world❤️. Anyway I was asked to hold a senior stray in bad shape she showed up with head tilt and when she stood or walked fell over. She had hyperthyroidism,a mass in abdomen badly matted. She was seen by vet and they ran blood work which was a mess,she was friendly then turned combative, aggressive but into the bite gloves ,scratched Chris tho no skin was broken vet said better to be safe and get rabies shots so we were at er all night. Sadly Goldie was euthanized we (Chris and I sat with her telling her she is the best girl and we are sorry she was failed by humans and we got her to late) as she drifted off to sleep . Of course I 2nd guess everything did I do the right thing? As bad as blood work was we could have done everything to just have to put her down in the end... But I tell this because this is what Chris and I do we save try to save these forgotten furbabies in the streets of Waterbury and while I fight for disability we have no income and be homeless and not be able to help anymore... So I continue to share the go fund me,and our Amazon wish list praying for help to keep us here and to keep feeding and saving these precious lives. Rent is not the only worry it's utilities,wifi,phones,hygiene supplies,kitty food, pellets,litter,laundry soap. We are beyond grateful for those that support us as we try our best to save as many lives as we can... Please share far and wide,pray for us no amount is to small or large I was recently discharged from the hospital again. I'm labeled as a fall risk now ugh I'm only 52 trying to find a company that will pay Chris to care for me but the referral the social worker sent that place said I need to be 65 ,another place said Chris has to be 21. He is scared to get a job out of the house in case I fall or something happens,I have to force him to go out with friends.... Sorry so long thank you for baring with me.. EMERGENCY!! Waterbury, CT is about to lose the most valuable and relentless rescue volunteer who despite being disabled has saved countless lives. Tammy Galarza has been struggling with congestive heart failure, cellulitis, infected leg wounds and PTSD. She has been hospitalized,gone to specialists, and still is fighting for disability. She currently has zero income and will lose her home if she can't pay April's rent. Her pittie Loki she rescued years ago from abuse likely has cancer. She is inundated with abandoned, injured animals every day showing up , being dumped on her. Including dogs who escape backyard breeders and being used as bait. Animals gravitate towards kind energy and someone who can barely walk , has so little means but tries to save everyone is who they always find. Animal control offers no support. If Tammy loses her home, the animals in Waterbury will suffer greatly. Please if you can help in any way it is greatly appreciated. You can also reach out to Tammy Galarza privately through Facebook Messenger. Your compassion and help are very much needed and appreciated! I have myself adopted 3 cats through her and placed 8 others with friends. Tammy is not a hoarder, she tries so hard to get animals vetted , rescued and placed. We lose her in Waterbury, we lose animals. -Thank you Donna Truhn ❤️
