Donations for Molly ~ let's help Silverwater (her rescuer) with the vet bills

12 years ago

Asking for donations to help Dana (Silverwater) pay for Molly's emergency surgery:

We are accepting donations to pay-off Molly's surgery.

Two weeks ago Molly was hit and dragged by a car in Guayaquil. Many stopped to stare but no one helped this little girl except on of our expat kids, Dana Cameron's (Silverwater) older daughter who scooped her up, wrapped her in her sweatshirt and ran a kilometer to the vet.

Despite a number of different treatments, Molly required surgery Saturday night and the leg was too mangled and the chance of infection too great to keep the limb. Molly is recovering from two surgeries, the second on Sunday morning, and is recuperating under the tender care of the Cameron girls.

Our vets at El Pibe discounted the two surgeries, x rays, anesthesia, medication and overnight care, for Molly to $210 total and are accepting payments. Please consider helping us as we help our mascotas de Ecuador -- and yes Molly is looking for her own forever home!

All funds to this point have come out of Dana's pocket -- she has contributed all funds for the vet car and daily care as well as the cost of getting Molly here to the coast for surgery but she is on a very tight budget raising two girls on a teacher's salary and supplementing with income from working as a VISA facilitator.

Currently Silverwater is the person responsible to pay for Molly's surgery and she would never ask for help herself, but I am putting this out to everyone who has been assisted by all the free advice and assistance given by Dana (Silverwater) with correct and complete VISA information ~ If you could contribute to Molly's vet bills please contact me so i can provide the account for El Pibe veterinarian in La Libertad to make payments for the surgery.

Thank you!

and our rother escues rehomed: Tobi the shepherd mix, Ginger (the cat), the calico girls.
and those waiting for homes: Olaf the bulldog and Lupe the staffy and now...Molly the tripod dog!
