**good news update, the intensive surgery they were going to do was put on hold, my surgeon wants to try everything he can to avoid having to go down that route- fingers crossed he will find a way to make that happen. I'll keep you all posted. Thank you all for your positive and loving messages and energy- it melts my heart and has really helped keep me going ❤️ **
Hi everyone just another update, I need another more intensive surgery, I'll hide the photo in the comments for those who dont want to know what it'll look like, thank you all for your love and support during this time, it really means the world to me ❤️
Hi everyone — I wanted to share an update.
I recently experienced a sudden medical emergency that resulted in severe burns. As part of my recovery, I will also need surgery and ongoing treatment. Because of this, I won’t be able to groom or take appointments for the time being. My doctors currently expect my recovery to take until around the end of April.
This has been a very unexpected and difficult situation, but I’m focusing on healing so I can safely return to work and caring for your pups again. I truly appreciate everyone’s patience, kindness, and understanding during this time.
Some incredibly kind clients have also organized support for me while I’m unable to work, and I’m deeply grateful for the generosity and encouragement from this amazing community around my small business.
I also want to give a heartfelt thank you to Heidi at Dog Splash down the street. She has very kindly offered to take in any clients who need grooming sooner while I’m recovering. As an incredibly generous gesture, she plans to donate a portion of those grooming fees to help support me during this time, and she is keeping her prices at or below what I normally charge so clients aren’t paying extra.
Thank you all so much for your support. I miss you all very much and I’ll continue to share updates here when I can and as I get closer to returning.
❤️Rebecca
