RIP sweet, beautiful Luna π
Luna passed away under her favorite shade tree on September 3, 2022. Luna had recently started eating better, but sadly, her body was just too tired. Luna was one day shy of her 2nd birthday, it is a tragedy that she was taken so soon.
Luna was so loved, and her family fought so hard to save her. Our thoughts and prayers are with Luna's family during this sorrowful time.
RIP sweet, beautiful Luna
Luna has some good days and some not so good days
Luna is managing her autoimmune disease, she will be on a high protein diet, weekly B12 injections, low dose steroids, and nutritional supplements for the rest of her life.
Luna has had some days where she will not eat, and on other days she is ravenous. Luna recently had another weight check-in at her vet, and she gained 10 lbs! Luna still has a long way to go, but she is heading in the right direction. Way to go, Luna! π
Luna has a diagnosis!
Luna was diagnosed with Lymphangiectasia, which is robbing her body of much-needed protein. She is being treated with medications and a change in diet. However, she is still losing weight and eating very little. Her family is working with a nutritionist, and she will be on medications for the rest of her life. Luna has a long road ahead. Because of the generosity and kindness of our donors, she will get the much-needed treatment she needs.
If you can help this U.S. veteran and his big bundle of fur, Luna, with her medical expenses, please donate today.
Luna has a long road ahead.
Luna has a long road to recovery.
Luna had lost a lot of weight, she went from 98lb to 57lb in just a few months. Her veterinarian suspected an autoimmune disease where her body is not absorbing protein properly. Luna had invasive surgery to biopsy her intestines and at that time she was spayed. Luna's recovery has been difficult, she is still not eating properly and losing weight, she has very watery stools and her incision area is red and inflamed. Her veterinarian prescribed an anti-nausea medication, an appetite stimulant, probiotics, and a stronger antibiotic. We will know more once the results of her biopsy come back. Please pray for Luna and her family. π
We will have more updates soon!
