Urgent Help Needed for Bubba's Medical Bills
Donation protected
Hello all and thank you for your concern. My name is Maria and I am trying to help my mother-in-law, Robin, raise money to help with vet costs.*** UPDATE: as of May 30th, Bubba is home! 3 nights and 4 days in hospital, meds total $4,513! *** see photos, before and after he came home (2nd set). He ended up losing his sight!
Bubba, (dog in picture), is a cute, sweet and loving dog. Robin became his mom after a tragic incident of Bubba's owner taking his own life last year. Ever since that day, Bubba and Robin have supported each other through this hard time. Then last month, she lost her father from a sudden heart attack. Still Bubba was by her side for her to love. He is her emotional support animal and she treats him like one of her own sons! Even if you're feeling down, Bubba always can make you smile with that face! He is such a good dog and I hate that he is going through so much right now. She saved Bubba, he saved her and now we NEED your help to save Bubba!
Bubba was taken to the ER vet on Monday, May 26th as he had diarrhea and wasn't his normal happy self. When Bubba was in procedure to extract a urine sample, the vet hit a vein, which caused a blood clot! Shortly after that, Bubba lost his eye sight. So things have been getting worse for him. He couldn't even eat, but when she showed up to hand feed him, he ate for her! This shows that their bond is strong! The vet is saying there are kidney issues and they are keeping him longer to run more tests etc. So that means he will be staying yet another night! As of today, May 28th he is still there. They say that a blood clot formed, and later he lost his sight! So on top of being very sick, now he cant see either. The bill is causing a lot of stress for Robin, on top of dealing with sadness for Bubba.
Bubba is such a joy for her grand kids (my kids) as well! ANTHING you can do is helpful and appreciated!
Please help us save Bubba and help pay for his medical costs, which are now estimated to be between $4 -$5,000 at this point.
