Betty came into SCAR a week ago after being abandoned for three weeks with no food or water. She was malnourished, dehydrated, had bacterial skin conditions due to living in her own filth and muscle wastage contributing to severe arthritis. She was unable to keep food in as her body was no longer used to it.
She is the most beautiful old soul and she is currently staying with Nick, Ed and I to get the love and care she needs after her trauma.
Things we have done at SCAR and things she will need to get her back on track will involve high expenses. Some of these include:
- Hospitalisation and intravenous fluids
- Blood tests
- Infectious disease tests (all negative)
- Malaseb washes for her skin infection
- Probiotics and Antacids to repair her damaged gut
- Other medications for deficiencies
- High quality prescription food
- Supplements, massage and physio for her arthritis
- X-rays
- A dental procedure
We understand Christmas time is very hard financially for a lot of people, but any donation big or small will make a massive difference in Betty’s recovery ?
Good Luck ! It’s wonderful work that you do ?
