Maggie May's Story . . .
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Update
12/27/2015:
“Spoiled
she was and a joy to her foster family throughout her days with them. “
Spoiled she was and a joy to her
foster family throughout her days with them.
When at last overcome by her illness, she was released to the
Bridge. Good speed, Miss Maggie May. Your time as a MAESSR girl was way too
short........
Original: “Maggie May is everything a good Springer girl should be…having excellent house
manners with just a touch of counter-surfing, a perpetual smile on her face,
and a total enjoyment of life.”
This
adorable older girl was turned in to a Pennsylvania shelter when her family was
moving. Poor Maggie May was extremely
stressed in the shelter. The shelter
staff reached out to MAESSR because they had previously worked with our
rescue…and Maggie May became a MAESSR girl.
That was her lucky day!!!
Maggie
May made the long trip to her foster home with dignity, just happy to be out of
the scary place. She walked into her
foster home and immediately won everyone’s heart. She is so sweet and friendly one can’t help
but love her.
The first
order of business was a needed trip to the vet and a good grooming. The shelter had checked Maggie May over and
concluded that she desperately needed dental care. They also believed one of the lumps on a
rear leg was a mast cell tumor. She
received a good checkup from MAESSR’s vet and was groomed. She came home looking so beautiful! A dental appointment had been scheduled for a
later visit, but then the results of her blood work came back with a grim
diagnosis: Maggie May has acute
lymphoblastic leukemia. What sad news
for such a wonderful girl. Though somewhat
bitter sweet to become a “permanent foster,” she will remain with her current
foster family so that she may live out the rest of her life being spoiled
rotten, as she deserves.
Maggie
May is everything a good Springer girl should be…having excellent house manners
with just a touch of counter-surfing, a perpetual smile on her face, and a
total enjoyment of life. Please keep
this baby girl in your thoughts.
