About this campaign

My PRICELESS MAGNIFICENT AWESOME AMAZING SPECTACULAR BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL baby boy, Mr. Giggles, was delivered to me by God in Nov. 2009!! 😻😻😻 I was there the day he popped out!! 😍😍😍 He's by far the BEST earthly gift, miracle & blessing God has ever given me!! (James 1:17, Ephesians 3:20-21❀) 🎁🎁🎁

Little did I know, changing his glass feeding bowls to plastic when he was almost 3, was the WORST decision i could have made!! 😭😭😭 He chronically threw up for over 5 years and nobody could tell me why!! Stupid me realized it was the plastic bowls that was causing the horrific daily vomiting all along, after i finally switched to a different kind of bowl!! I can't describe how angry I am at myself for not realizing it years sooner and even worse that i switched to plastic in the first place!! 😭😭😭 My heart SCREAMED in tears every time I heard him puking and I felt so STUPID and helpless because nobody else had any answers either.

I've struggled with my own chronic med problems for over 26 years now, which has been incredibly hard to deal with but I owe EVERYTHING to God!! He's saved my life a zillion times!! PRAISE JESUS!! In 2015 my health got even worse and I haven't been able to work since then. I noticed Mr. Giggles started feeling heavy which wasn't normal for him as he's always been a slim, 10 lb cat. I went 3.5 years without income after being illegally fired for filing a WComp claim from a restaurant injury. It was an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE!! I had Drs to support my claim but the evil restaurant refused to pay for my treatment. I had exploratory surgery in 2017 which found a lot of new med problems but didn't fix the pain. Giggs started getting really bad in 2018 (looking back now, I know was a result of the chronic vomitting!! 😭😭😭) That's when God led me to change his bowls which stopped the nasty horrendous puking and I was blessed with some $ to take him to a vet for a checkup.

He was incredibly bloated, constipated and dehydrated at that point. He was also crying horribly when urinating!! He was given lactulose but it was NOT fixing the underlying issues!! I kept vet hopping all over the place because no vet was listening to me or helping my boy!! They just kept giving him medications that were NOT helping and making him sick!! 😭😭😭 It has become the WORST nightmare of my life!!! I have poured out any $ i did have and borrowed from friends trying to find answers. It's been ABSOLUTELY HEARTBREAKING to know how badly my boy has been neglected. The vets were not listening but continued to take my $ for follow up appts, only to tell me, "he's just overweight, has arthritis or i don't know." 😭😭😭😭

When I told them major symptoms, I was brushed off. When i told a vet in early 2019 that he has horrific bad breath, slimy & discolored gums..i was ignored yet again. He said Giggs had lost a lot of teeth but didn't do anything else. I finally found another vet after going through 10 other bad ones, and she told me Giggs had a upper canine cavity and dental disease/gingivitis. Thou I was pretty upset because i wasn't given any answers in what to do next.

In Feb of this year, I found out his chest congestion that i wasn't informed about in Nov. 2019, had gotten worse!! His belly bloat has gotten severely worse as well and he started drooling and licking his mouth pretty bad. His constipation and dehydration were still INCREDIBLY bad as well!! He's become dependent on me to give him water from a dish in my hands every couple hours. 😭😭😭 I LOVE taking care of him but this is NOT normal. He's like an infant. It's breaking my heart!!! 😭😭😭

I prayed and God led me to get azithromycin for his mouth and chest congestion. For the first 2 months, I saw INCREDIBLE progress!!! His bad breath cleared up and he was a pooping machine!!! I was overwhelmed with joy!!! Unfortunately, that great happiness was short lived. It was obvious he had infection all around. But his tummy bloat, pee crying and dehydration never went away. I prayed again and God told me he needed dentist. I typed in "best veterinary dentist near me," and God immediately directed it to Dr. Juriga. I was overwhelmed in MASSIVE excitement after reading about him and his wonderful reviews!!! I KNOW he is the ANSWER I've been relentlessly searching and praying for!!! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

Here I am almost 8 years later from when this NIGHTMARE started and i can't stop CRYING!! 😭😭😭 My body continues to SCREAM in agony but even WORSE Giggs keeps getting WORSE and I don't have the $ for his dental work. I became unable to work in 2015 and had to wait til almost 2019 to receive compensation. I owed a ton of people $ from helping me all the previous years and I've poured out my $ taking Mr. Giggles to a ton of vet appointments, vitamins and food. There's NOTHING i wouldn't do to help my baby boy!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😍😍😍😍 I'm just praying with EVERYTHING I am for help right now!! I'm at my breaking point. πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’” I feel INCREDIBLY STUPID for saying that but I'm being honest. I'm so beyond EXHAUSTED!! I cry nonstop, I can't sleep well at all and my heart is SCREAMING INFINITE tears for help!! πŸ†˜πŸ†˜πŸ†˜ I can't stand to see him suffer or be sick for one more second!!!! It's been a suffocating evil NIGHTMARE!!! 😭😭😭😭

He'll be 11 this November and I'm BEGGING God and you all for help. I can't breathe. 🀒🀒🀒 I'm also praying for a MIRACLE to get new flooring and clean out the air vents, they are both SO dirty!! I had to move and the preexisting carpet is DISGUSTING and vents blow out so much dust!! Maybe a new bed too, lol.
Im still sleeping on my little sister's 3/4 bed she had in the 80's. 😞😞😞 I hate that my baby has to walk on the nasty carpet and my room is like a sauna in here, it's so hot!! I'm so sorry for complaining but I'm so tired. 😡😡😡 I have selfishly asked God to let me die, innumerable times, but that's so INCREDIBLY selfish!!! I can NOT leave my baby boy without his mommy!! My heart bleeds to serve God and help others!!! I pray to be fully healed from my own physical misery so I can go out in the world and help others!! God is calling is all to do so!! (Mark 12:30-31❀)
Mr. Giggles is MY priceless baby boy!!
He's glued to my hip!! He's a HUGE BLESSING & I LOVE LOVE LOVE him more than I can say!! (Times Infinity!!) I'm barely holding on, PLEASE HELP!! πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™Œβ€β€β€
