Bringing Diablo and Lisa Home

Donation protected
Diablo and Lisa have formed a special bond.  Diablo was kicked down the stairs and suffered 2 breaks in his back right leg that were never treated.  Lisa's son was killed in 2012 .  Her grief propelled her to move to TN. from Alaska.  When Lisa adopted Diablo from our rescue, she needed him more than he needed her.  We knew that there was more tragedy in Lisa's life when she told us her 2 granddaughters and her son's widow  have been missing since May of 2014.

I received a call on March 29th from Lisa asking if we could keep Diablo while she returned to Alaska for 3 weeks. The bodies of her precious grandchildren, 
their mother, and their dog had been found in the underbrush by a man on a 4 wheeler....it is being investigated as a  murder/suicide. 

Of course we agreed to keep Diablo but, thru Lisa's tears, it became evident that we could help her best by arranging for her to have Diablo fly with her to Alaska...she called him her "saving grace".   I Could Have Been Adopted Resuce paid the 225.00 needed to fly Diablo to Anchorage from Nashville, TN because after paying for her one way ticket, Lisa had 40.00 in her bank account.   My daughter and I, representing the rescue, picked up Lisa and Diablo at 2 am at their home in Smyrna, TN, drove them to the airport in Nashville, and made sure they got on their plane to Anchorage.

We would like to raise the money to reimburse ICHBA Rescue 225.00, and pay the 764.00 for the plane tickets to get Diablo and Lisa back from Alaska to the house in TN that they call home.  There Lisa can begin to heal with her "saving grace",  Diablo.

Please help us bring Diablo and Lisa home and,since I am an "old fogey" without a facebook page, please share it on yours for us or email to your contacts.
