Krystal was waiting for the loan of a cage before she could bring Amber for boarding and subsequent treatment at our panel clinic. I had told her a 2ft X 3 ft cage should be able to fit right into any MyVi, but not her bigger cage (that's why she needed the two boys to bring their pick-up the last time).
Mary has already raised donations from amongst her friends to pay for Amber's boarding while undergoing treatment at the clinic.
Yesterday, another friend donated some money to pay for Amber's food while she is at the clinic.
This morning, my friend, CP, returned the cage and now, all that's left is for Krystal to take the cage and bring Amber in.
Then, we can start treatment, which should not be delayed anymore.
It takes so many hearts to make things works.
It IS all about working together, within our means, but doing things with a sincere and genuine heart, no matter how small the contribution, ultimately, it's the intention that matters.
TVT is curable, no matter how bad it looks. But as with all treatments, there is no guarantee that a street dog who has underlying health problems may not react negatively. However, if we don't get Amber treated, she will die from the TVT eventually, so it looks like we have no choice but to attempt treatment.
Please pray for Amber's recovery.
A TVT or an ex-TVT dog should not be left to roam freely on the streets as there is a slight chance that TVT can recur later in life, and it spreads through contact. No vet can totally guarantee that it is completely cured. As such, looking ahead, we may need to help look for an adopter for Amber, if the treatment goes well.
Let's pray it does.
One step at a time....
Amber, two weeks ago. Notice the half-eaten vulva - that's the TVT eating her up.
Krystal says she has been feeding Amber iron-rich foods as per instructed by the vet. Amber needs to be in a better health before the TVT jabs commence. It's chemotherapy and it will weaken her immune system.
We hope Krystal can bring her in this evening.
