Addie's Medical Expenses
Donation protected
Hello all my name is Andrea and I have a very dear friend who is dire need of some help. Her name is Crystal.
She is a stay at home mommy of 6 children ranging in age from teen to tot. She has a great husband who is doing his best to support the family.
Crystal is amazing dealing with everything she has to deal with. She has several kids with medical problems and one of them is deaf. His name is Nicky and he is 8.
He is really struggling since his best friend moved away. So they decided as a family to get him a puppy that will be a service dog for him and be a best friend that he will have forever! Her name is Addie, and Nicky loves her so much!!!
She is still a puppy and is learning many things. She is understand ASL (American Sign Language) commands better than spoken commands which is very important because Nicky communicates in ASL and she is his dog. It is hard work training a dog let alone a puppy, but she is getting help from Koda and Sofie (the other two dogs they have).
They are very good and patient with Addie.
Sunday when letting the dogs outside something happened and Addie was hurt. As she was trying to rush outside with the other dogs she got tripped over and got hurt. She was hollering a lot, but after a little while settled down. A few minutes later she was wimpering and limping. After taking her the vet Crystal was hit with devastating news. Addie has a broken bone in her back leg.
The vet said that is is going to over $3000, possible amputation. The whole family is struggling with this, since it was a huge blow for them. Without income for a while they have been really behind in bills on top of an ER run for the youngest who fell, a dog allergic to dog food (go figure), and Nicky's friend moving away. This has all been too much for Crystal.
When I needed help with my bathroom Crystal and Jared were the ones to come over as soon as they could. They have been such great friends and my heart breaks knowing that I alone cannot help. But with everyone together we can make a difference in their lives. If you could please help reach our goal for Addie's medical expenses that would be a huge blessing for this sweet family, if we are able to exceed our goal it will be put aside for future treatments that arise.
Thank you, God bless you all!!
