A Little Help From My Friends

Request for help. Some of you may know Sunshade and her mom Elaine (http://www.sunshadethesuperdale.com/) Sunshade has not been well because she came down with a mysterious ailment late last Friday evening/Saturday morning and Sunshade was taken to Seattle Veterinary Specialists in Kirkland, WA by her mom. The Seattle clinic thought that Sunshade was suffering from gastroentritis but her usual vet is currently investigating the possibility that it may be something related to Cushings or Addisons. To date, Sunshade's condition has improved after many IVs and antibiotics. Her bloody diarrhea has finally stopped although she still has periodic episodes of vomiting. The Seattle vet bill of  $2500 plus further vet bills for aftercare and treatment back at her usual clinic in Canada have stretched things a bit so I thought that it might be a good idea to stage a bit of a fundraiser to share some of the burden. However, please don't feel obligated, your good thoughts will also be gratefully received, welcomed and forwarded to Elaine and Sunshade. However, if you can manage, a donation would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Sammy.
