Please, Help my Mom help me Walk Again!
Hi! My name is Maple Syrup, I am a 5 yr old German Shepherd. I love to chase, be chased and walk with my furry friends. I would go to the dog park every day, twice a day on weekends. Even during the Polar Vortex, I dragged my mom to the dog park for a short run. I’ve got a great fur coat, she had to layer and layer :)
This all changed on June 26th. I was playing with my friend when my mom noticed I was dragging my right hind leg. I didn’t even feel anything. My mom rushed me to the ER. Three days, 2 ERs, multiple tests including an MRI, I was diagnosed with FCE, dog terms - a spinal stroke. I also contracted a bed sore which has needed multiple treatments and medications. We are at $7000.00 already.
My mom is trying to get me a wheelchair and multiple therapy sessions, which she is not sure how she will be able to pay for it. Can you help get me mobile on 3 legs and maybe after a lot of hard work 4 legs. I miss my friends at the dog park :(
Thank you,
Many Licks and Paw,
Maple
