Mr. Wiggles is an 8 year old Chihuahua who was given to my parents as a Christmas gift. He had been abused by his previous owner and was made to live outside. When my Dad was diagnosed with cancer, Mr. Wiggles never left his side. Whenever Dad was hospitalized, Mr. Wiggles became very depressed. Mr. Wiggles loves everyone, including children. Mr. Wiggles got very sick in August and was diagnosed with Diabetes and Cushing's Disease (Cushing's disease makes diabetes more difficult to regulate). My Mom couldn't handle the drastic diet change or giving him the Vetsulin injections twice a day, so he came to live with me. I am on SSI and receive only $623 per month. After paying rent and my other bills, there is no money left for incidentals. Mr. Wiggles is very special and deserves medical treatment for his condition.
