Lipton the Little Fighter

LIPTON IS A RESIDENT AT EVO AND ELI'S LOVE BOX WHICH IS A 501C3 NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION LOCATED IN CHAMBERSBURG, PA

PLEASE MET LIPTON THE FIGHTER. A LITTLE YORKIE MIX THAT WAS LEFT TO DIE IN A PLASTIC SWIMMING POOL INSIDE A BACK YARD BREEDER'S HOME IN WEST VIRGINIA. LIPTON FOUND RESCUE WHEN A FRIEND SEEN A POST ABOUT THIS LITTLE GUY LIVING IN A PLASTIC POOL WITH UNCONTROLLABLE BODY MOVEMENTS, UNABLE TO EAT OR DRINK ON HIS OWN AND UNABLE TO WALK. SHE CALLED US RIGHT AWAY. (EVO AND ELI'S LOVE BOX AND SANCTUARY)

LONG STORY SHORT LIPTON'S "OWNER" WAS HESITANT TO SURRENDER HIM UNTIL I MADE IT CLEAR TO HER IF SHE DIDN'T WE WOULD REPORT HER TO THE AUTHORITIES. SO SHE AGREED TO MET DENISE AND SURRENDER HIM. DENISE TOOK CARE OF LIPTON FOR ABOUT A WEEK UNTIL WE COULD ARRANGE TRANSPORTATION TO PA. AFTER LIPTON'S ARRIVAL HE SEEN A NEUROLOGIST IMMEDIATELY. THE NEUROLOGIST HAD LITTLE HOPE THAT LIPTON WOULD SURVIVE THE NEXT FEW DAYS. I TOLD HIM THAT I HAVE FAITH AND THIS LITTLE GUY MADE IT THIS FAR AND I'M NOT GIVING UP ON HIM. SO WE PROCEEDED WITH A SPINAL TAB AND MRI. THE MRI SHOWED AN INFECTION ON THE BRAIN AND WAS PUT ON ANTIBIOTICS. LIPTON WENT THROUGH A LOT OF OTHER TESTS LIKE BILE ACIDS TESTING, PORTOGRAM AND EVEN AN ULTRASOUND. IT IS BELIEVED HE HAS PORTOSYSTEMIC SHUNTS. THE ULTRASOUND SHOWED MULTIPLE OPENINGS IN LIPTON'S LIVER THAT MADE SURGERY NOT AN OPTION. LIPTON SHOWS IMPROVED DAILY AND HAS THE WILL TO SURVIVE. NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT WE DON'T SEE IMPROVEMENT.
