Louie needs your help!
Our wonderful pup Louie is currently very sick. He developed an anemia that is very serious. After 8 weeks of being on steroids and antibiotics he underwent a bone marrow test (very painful). The good news from the test was it is NOT lymphoma and his body is trying to produce good blood cells. Unfortunately the infection is so high right now his good cells are being consumed by the bad. We are going to try getting some high dose antibiotics in him and taking him off the steroids. If this does not work we will be going back to MIZZOU for a blood transfusion. I am in the process of raising funds for Louie. If you can help him in any way we sure would appreciate it. Of course donations are accepted in any denomination. The bone marrow test was $400 and if we need the blood transfusion that is another $400 (that is the rate at Mizzou - in STL it was going to be $1,o00 for the BM Test). That is on top of the bills from all the tests, meds, and twice a week trips to the vet. Of course we are trying everything we can for him - but the vet bills keep going up and I am still unemployed. If you are able to help Louie out in any way, he will surely never forget you.
