Little Hope is experiencing a setback as she has developed pneumonia but she’s on antibiotics and has a good appetite. She’s even had a BM a couple of times which is good! We are very grateful for her team of caregivers at UF, I think she has them wrapped around her little hoof.

Following any major surgery like hers, the days after can be a roller coaster ride but Hope has toughed it out and I’m sure that prayers are helping.

Hope will remain at the hospital until she is stable and comfortable. There, she’s monitored around the clock and, should something arise, they are able to diagnose and treat her right away. As badly as we want her back at the rescue, she’s right where she needs to be for now.

Thank you all for caring and please keep this little angel in your prayers.

Sincerely,
Theresa

Friday Morning
We have a 24 hour baby alpaca coming in. His mother rejected him.  If so, his only hope will be for us to take him to UF.  He needs colostrum and vet care ASAP.

We need a miracle.

We named him Ashton.

Ashton is receiving plasma and is trying so hard.  His initial blood work is not good but we’re not giving up. They have given him a 50-50 chance.

Believe…

Theresa has put down a $1,000 deposit at UF for Baby Ashton’s care.  The estimated cost at UF for the plasma with the antibodies he needs, along with blood work, antibiotics, fluids, etc. is $800 to $1200.
