My Jersey. My son. My baby.
Donation protected
Jersey was only going to be a temporary part of my life in 2009, but he stole my heart & I told his owner (or the parents of his owner) that I was going to keep him. I officially changed his name to Jersey & gave him my last name. Took him to the vet and that was that. Even his microchip has me listed as his mama.
When we moved to the area that we live now, it was him, me and his 2 little/big sisters, Toki and Lizzie. He has filled my heart with such love, he has been my protector, son, running partner, stealer of food, and stealer of all hearts. Everyone that meets him want to hug and love him.
In 2012 I met my boyfriend, and I thought we were in trouble. But Jersey showed him his heart, and I pretty much got replaced. O likes to call him his shadow now, they go everywhere together, and even when I initially say no, all Jersey has to do is look at me with those big brown eyes and I always say yes.
I say all this because recently we were told that Jersey has lymphoma, it's treatable, but as he did not technically come out of me (although I always say he was born from me), he is not covered under my insurance plan. I am reaching out to you, the public, family and friends. I donate to all kinds of organizations, I support when I can, but I know this is going to be expensive. I'm going to have to cut back, and probably cannot be as generous as I have been in the past to places that I have donated for. I am but a mere Social Worker & as I am only half licensed, I don't get paid that much.
So that's our story. We were told until we see the oncologist we wouldn't know what we're in for yet. We'll need tests to see what Stage he's at, we think he's at Stage III at this point. We were explained the difference in chemotherapy in humans and doggies, and that there is only one way this will end...and that the point of all of this is to keep him happy and to have a comfortable life. Right now he's going to be running, catching ball and annoying the girls as long as he can. He is an amazing puppy, and I know most people don't like Pitbull’s, but I blame the media and ignorance for that. They are the sweetest, most loving of all breeds. If you feel generous to donate to keep my son happy and comfortable, anything would be welcome. I thank you in advance, we all thank you and appreciate that you took the time to read this.
