About this campaign

For those who don't know this precious angel, this is Whiskey. She is our beautiful baby girl who has breast cancer. Her life started at the Cleveland APL, where our old roommate adopted her. The APL was unsure if she has ever been spayed, she had a scar on her lower abdomen. They said if you see signs of heat please bring her back and they’ll spayed her. Of course she was never brought back in.

Because we thought she was spayed this whole time we were always told if there are parts of the uterus left it’ll make them go into heat without actually going into it. It wasn't until she had a terrible infection, that antibiotics couldn't clear up that Whiskey had to have her first surgery, which was exploratory and become a hysterectomy and lumpectomy.

Whiskey is our only little pride and joy in our lives. She is our emotional support when we’ve had tough weeks. We are not ready to lose her and will do everything we have to do to save her.

After this surgery she will need a LT side total mastectomy and possible chemo depending on what her biopsy says after the first mastectomy.
This is where we need help. Scott and I both work multiple jobs, while I am a full-time nursing student, to make ends meet. These treatments/surgeries are going to be a struggle for us. If you can give anything at all, even just $5 it will go a long way.

6 months later our poor girl had to go in for a second lumpectomy on new lumps that had formed. We decided there has to be more than our poor girl going into surgeries every 6 months for tumors. We decided to get a second opinion. And now we are where we are. Whiskey needs a full mastectomy on her right side.
