(UPDATE FROM HOSPITAL)
"Amelia has remained bright, alert, and comfortable throughout the night. Her wounds remain unchanged, with a moderate amount of drainage present. No increase in swelling, heat, or discomfort has been noted."
"Amelia remains bright, comfortable, and stable this morning. Her wounds continue to drain appropriately, and she is maintaining a good appetite and normal manure production. Continued monitoring is recommended."

💜 When it rains, it pours...
Yesterday evening, we admitted Amelia Peabody and her daughter Buffy to the Outlaw Equine Hospital after what began as a seemingly simple fly bite turned into something much more serious.With all the rain we've had in Texas, the biting flies have been relentless.🪰 They targeted a small uncovered area on Amelia's leg, creating an open sore. Following our veterinarian's recommendations, the wound was cleaned, disinfected, and bandaged. At first, she appeared to be improving, but within a short time her entire leg swelled to nearly twice its normal size. A second lesion higher on her leg opened and began draining continuously, making it clear she needed more intensive care. Amelia was admitted so her leg could be thoroughly cleaned, treated, drained, and closely monitored in a sterile environment. Because Buffy has rarely been separated from her momma and we didn't want her becoming stressed or depressed, she went along to provide a little emotional support. 💕 As always, we are so grateful for everyone's love & support for the Loving Long Ears Donkeys!!
🌼 So far, Loving Long Ears has already paid $2,000 toward Amelia's hospital stay, treatment, and transportation costs, and have received donations of $1,700. We won't know the final total $$$ until we bring the girls home. We are asking for urgent tax-deductible donations of any amount to help offset these unexpected medical expenses. 💖 Most importantly, we are grateful that Amelia is receiving the care she needs and that we caught this before it became even more serious. 🙏🫏
If you would like to help, donations of any size are greatly appreciated!
Thank you for your support, prayers, and kindness. We couldn't do this without our wonderful Loving Long Ears family. 🫏💜
