Ihr Lieben,
vielen Dank erst einmal für eure Spenden und euer Interesse und Vertrauen in dieses Projekt, welches mir wirklich viel bedeutet.
Wir konnten bereits 529 Euro via betterplace.me an Spenden sammeln plus 60 Euro, die ich direkt auf mein Privatkonto erhalten habe. Also insgesamt 589 Euro - das ist der Wahnsinn! Vielen lieben Dank für eure Hilfe!
Ich werde dieses Projekt weiterhin stark bewerben und hoffe, dass ihr dies auch tun werdet und wir damit zusammen noch mehr Menschen erreichen werden.
Nun zu den wirklich tollen Neuigkeiten, die ich für euch habe: Wir retten Cosby!
Dank eurer Unterstützung konnte ich heute die Hälfte der lebensnotwendigen Medikamente für Cosby bezahlen (2000 Mexikanische Pesos, umgerechnet ca. 81,50 Euro). Diese Hündin wurde von ihren Besitzern verstoßen als diese feststellten, dass sie einen bösartigen Tumor am Kopf hatte. Dieser konnte bereits erfolgreich entfernt werden und nun konnten Madlen (meine Freundin aus der Schweiz, welche ebenso in Playa del Carmen wohnt und das Tierheim unterstützt) und ich uns die Kosten für die lebensnotwenigen Medikamente für Cosby teilen und sie somit komplett bezahlen. Cosbys roten Blutkörperchen sind sehr gering und daher erhält sie nun Aufbaupräparate und in ca. einem Monat kann ihre 3-wöchige Chemotherapie in Tablettenform beginnen. Der Tierarzt sagt, dass sie damit die besten Überlebenschancen hat! Cosby ist trotz ihrer traurigen Geschichte ein sehr aufgeweckter und lebensfreudiger Hund und wir sind so froh, dass wir zusammen mit eurer Hilfe ihr Leben retten können.
Weitere Verbesserungen innerhalb der Installationen des Tierheims sind bereits geplant und sobald diese umgesetzt werden können, informiere ich euch natürlich sofort.
Ganz liebe Grüße aus Mexiko,
Eure Sabrina

Dear friends,
first of all I want to thank you for your donations and for your interest shown in this project which is really important to me.
We were able to collect so far 529 Euros via betterplace.me plus 60 Euros which I received directly to my bank account. So in total 589 Euros - that is amazing! Thank you very much for your help!
I will continue advertising this project and I hope you will do the same so we can reach even more people.
Now I want to share really good news with you: we rescue Cosby! Thanks to your donations I was able to pay today the half of the necessary medications for Cosby (2000 Mexican Pesos, round about 81,50 Euros). This female dog was rejected by her owners when they found out that she had a malignant tumour on her head. This tumour was already removed and I shared together with Madlen (a friend of mine from Switzerland who also lives in Playa del Carmen and supports the dog shelter) the costs for Cosby’s medications which are now paid in full. Her red blood cells are very low so she gets now medication for around one month in order to begin her 3-weeks chemotherapy afterwards. The vet says that her chances of survival are more than good! Despite her sad story, Cosby is a really joyful dog with a great lust for life. We are really happy that we can save her with the help of your donations.
Further renovations in the dog shelter are already planned and as soon as we can put them into action I will let you know.
Best regards,
Sabrina

Gracias a sus donaciones hemos podido pagar una parte de las medicinas para Cosby. Ella fue abandonada cuando sus duenos se enteraron que tenia un tumor arriba de su ojo. Se quito el tumor y ahora necesita medicamentos para aumentar sus globulos y empezar con el tratamiento de la quimioterapia. Con este tratamiento tiene muy buen chance de sobrevivir.
