Meet Honey, This is the poor soul Dumaguete Animal Sanctuary rescued today. Honey was dumped in severe condition with the biggest tumor on her face. She was in discomfort for a long time since she was swollen and infected.
” We are with her now at Animal Wellness getting X-rays to find out if this mass is treatable. Her early blood tests revealed that her organs were working OK, but she is anemic. She was also found to have heartworm.
They will put her on anti-inflammatory for 2 weeks and also work on raising her red blood cell count. She will then require surgery and chemotherapy. She stands a high chance of living a regular, happy life!
She need to do surgery to remove the mass, followed by chemo if it is cancerous. Given the position of the tumour, surgeons will need to do the procedure at Animal Wellness, where they have gas anaesthetic, giving Honey the highest chance of survival.
Her red blood cell count is still low after 15 days in the center, therefore she will have a transfusion. Hopefully, surgery will be performed soon after.
“Day 17: Honey’s operation has just begun. Just before she was sedated, she was photographed with Rina and Rudylyn. We will do the procedure at Animal Wellness since gas anaesthesia is safer for more serious instances. Because the tumor is so close to her brain, the procedure will be lengthy and complicated.
Day 19: Honey’s surgery was as successful as it could be given that the tumor had grown around so many of her facial and optical nerves. Unfortunately, the nerves controlling her left eyelid had to be severed, leaving her with a little droop.
The tumor was huge, and as a result the surgical wound is large. She is eating chicken which is a good sign. She will be able to live a normal life even without it. She is already eating on her own, but her face is still swollen from the operation and inflammation, so doctors are hopeful she will eat more once that subsides.
She is still in the very early stages of recovery from such an invasive surgery, and each day she survives without complications, is a blessing. She made it through the procedure!!! Honey is still deemed critical, but she is awake and breathing.
“We just had the results of Honey’s tumor biopsied and unfortunately it’s malignant. Doxorubicin is the most effective chemotherapy treatment for the type of cancer she has. We must act quickly to halt the spread of any cancer that may still be present in Honey’s system.”
She hadaother tumor in her vagina but the amazing news is that the tumor in her vagina has shrunk by 60 percent since she started chemo and she has only had two sessions so far.
After more than 3 months, she’s gaining weight and is generally in good spirits despite being on chemo. Her prognosis is still uncertain because chemo affects the organs, but we are confident she will recover completely.
The poor dog is in critical condition and is left outside the hospital like a bag of bones
Ellie was a dog like no other. He had an energy and zest for life that was contagious to all who met him. But it wasn’t always that way. Ellie had a rough start to life that left him in a critical situation in front of a hospital. He was emaciated, just like a bag of bones, and he looked as though he had given up on life.
But then something miraculous happened. One day, a group of animal lovers were passing by and noticed Ellie lying there. They could see he was in a critical condition and decided to take him in. They brought him to a nearby vet, examined him, and determined that he had been severely neglected. He was dehydrated, malnourished, and suffering from a number of health problems.
Despite his difficult condition, Ellie’s spirit was still strong. He was a fighter and refused to give up. The vets and animal lovers who had taken him were amazed at his resilience, and they knew that they had to do everything in their power to help him. Over the next several weeks, Ellie received round-the-clock care from a team of dedicated animal lovers. They fed him small amounts of food every few hours to help him regain his strength, gave him fluids and medicine to treat his health problems, and spent countless hours with him providing him with love and attention that he had never received before.
As Ellie began to recover, his personality began to shine through. He was playful, energetic, and loving. He had a zest for life that was infectious, and everyone who met him fell in love with him. Word began to spread, and people from all over the world began to follow his journey on social media.
Despite his newfound fame, Ellie was quite humble and grateful. He knew that he had been given a second chance at life, and he was determined to make the most of it. He began to work with the local animal rescues to help other dogs in need, and he became an ambassador for animal welfare. As Ellie’s story continued to spread, he became a symbol of hope for animals everywhere. People who had never considered adopting a dog before began to change their mind after hearing his story.
Ellie’s journey is a reminder of the resilience of animals and the transformative power of love and care. It’s a testament to the incredible impact that a group of dedicated individuals can make on the life of a neglected and abused animal. Ellie’s story is an inspiration to us all, and we should strive to be more like him, to be fighters and never give up, to be humble and grateful, and to use our experiences to help others in need.
