i just got to work and... i have to tell you - bambi has so much support from all the way in nyc! the email i sent last night to everyone in my office (apparently closer to 400 than 200, i was only counting the attorneys at my firm). i've already gotten $35 IN CASH for donations when i got to work and i've been here for 5 minutes! And 2 people who have chihuahuas wrote me back telling me that they've donated and hwo much they feel for bambi. I'm telling you, dog lovers are a breed of their own. I can't believe that i even got ONE person to respond to my email!

I have been feeling pretty jaded about the human race in general lately, and working in a large high power lawfirm in manhattan does not help that one bit. But today changed me. I am completely overwhelmed by the fact that people actually CARE about a dog so many miles away.

Bambi's mom - here are the people who have donated so far, and their email addresses if you'd like to say a quick thank you. Richard Favata (favata@hugheshubbard.com), Jeff Coleman (coleman@hugheshubbard.com), Kelly Addeo - a fellow chihuahua owner (addeo@hugheshubbard.com) and Shaun Terrill another chi owner(terrill@hugheshubbard.com)

Here is an email i received from Shaun who i have actually never even spoken to!

"My two chihuahuas practically dragged me to the paypal site with my wallet in their mouth to try to save this little baby.

Hope all goes well with her. :)

-Shaun"

People are REALLY pulling for Bambi, just know that! I will be donating the cash I receive today from my paypal - so the payments coming in from my email (ahrasemail@gmail.com) will be from people at my firm who have donated. I am glad that Bambi is home with you.
 
as in heading out now, i mean i'll be out already running errands but i would be more then happy to stop in and drop something off for you. but i do not want to come un announced just incase it would make you uncomfortable....let me know, hope all is well with bambi
 
This outpouring of love is so tremendous!! I am so humbled that we can all pull together during this time to help Bambi, and the fact that perfect strangers in a law firm in Manhattan are donating is amazing and WONDERFUL!! I have renewed faith and love in humankind now. :)
 
My family is NOT losing hope!!! We love that little darling and will continue to pray for her and your family! She is such a fighter! Hugs to little Bambi and to you. I'll be thinking of you and praying for you all day.
 
Brodysmom - tell me about it. I mean these are some of the most powerful, ruthless corporate attorneys in nyc and probably in the entire country. The fact that they are showing this kind of love and care, well let me just say it's a good day at work and i haven't had a good day at work in... well a very long time.

OMG you guys, I love you all so much.

TinyDogLuver - not one bit of offense or harm done here. I "love" the way you talk. Flaming? Kiss my touche? Gosh, I needed that laugh. Thank you and believe me, I probably would have thought the same thing had I not been living it. Thank you for your kind words. In emotional times, we all get a little "saucy", ya know what I mean?

Carrera - Holy Moly! Someone in town. How unbelievable is this? Does that mean we can have a meetup or something fun that all those Florida people do? I can cook. LOL. I am still at home right now with angel. The cardio can't see us till later and I told them until they are ready to run tests, I am laying in my bed with her. They understand. I just spoke with Vicki on the phone and she will be calling me soon. It shouldn't be more than a couple of hours. Aren't we so lucky to have a hospital like them? They have saved lives of my other pets and they are so compassionate. The girls were in there last night hugging me and crying with me. They also realize the urgency in this but Cardio had two other surgeries. I am only 20 minutes away (I live in Manchester. 20 minutes south of the hospital). So I'll bee bop over there and soon as I get the clearance. They are worried about a possible liver shunt? That's bad, isn't it? Her levels were a bit elevated.

Tricia - Thanks for closing that post. My fault. I kept starting new ones.

Harley Ridin Chopper - My hubby and I are bawling our eyes out over your post. God Bless You. We needed that.

Everybody Else - My hubby keeps telling me that I'm too nice of a person and people aren't like that and people take advantage of me, etc., etc.,
My faith is not only restored in mankind but I realize that there are lots of people with blind faith in other people and lots of people that feel good and love by helping and giving. I'm one of those also and I'm so blessed to have found others like that. I feel lucky no matter what happens to have you all.

I'm getting nutrical, baby food and water in her slowly. Should have seen me trying to get her pills in her. 1/4 of a very small pill is not easy. LOL. For all you medical people, I have her on lasix and enalapril.

Should know something soon.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Ahra - your office? That's crazy. Thank you so very much. I am sending them all e-mails right now. Hope to know something soon. Glad I have this comp to keep busy.

Lots of Love,



Robin and Bambi
 
omg im just in and wanted to check how bambi is im now sitting here in tears at those photos what a difference in poor wee bambi i hope she pulls through this and hope the surgery goes through and she is strong enough i cant stop crying god knows what you are going through
i hope you are ok and bearing up for your gorjuss baby
you are in my thoughs and prayers

 
I am so glad Bambi made it through the night. That shows that she is a fighter. As for the liver shunt, dogs can live a long life with one with either diet or surgery and I am sure if they are doing her heart surgery they will fix her shunt at the same time if possible. I have errands to do today but I would rather wait by the computer and wait for updates on Bambi. I can't be there for moral support but we are all here for you and Bambi. (((((HUGS)))))
 
Hon, there's a different breed of people out there, the one's you can trust, and they are called pet lover's. I too was jaded by humanity until I found pet loving friend's, and now my world is a wonderful place to be. Your husband has to let himself trust, and this horrible situation you are in will change your family for all the better. This similar situation changed my family and we are closer than ever thanks to my little canine boywho taught us all so much.
I'm in tears from the photo, but so happy she is with you now. Please give her a big gentle kiss from us and I'm praying harder than ever that's there's a turn around. Al our love to you my dear. Rochelle.
