We are feeling so blessed today.
We have been anxiously awaiting the first round of results from the pups who are being tested as a match for Eliot and were feeling a bit down after hearing from the lab that they hadn’t had luck so far (they haven’t given us details yet but suggested we should definitely keep looking). Today we came home to FOUR new voicemails from owners of dogs related to Eliot who saw our post online or the fliers we have posted in vet offices and volunteered to do the simple blood test required to see if they are a match.
We are so grateful to everyone who has shared our post and eternally grateful to those who have brought their dogs in to be tested. These are acts of true selfless kindness and it’s heartwarming to have people make such an effort to help us save Eliot’s life. Eliot is the heart of our family. She is so special and it feels like her spirit has been spread to all of those who have come forward. We can’t thank everyone enough. Please, please continue sharing the original post and contact us with any leads. This is a numbers game. More relatives tested= more likelihood of a match for Eliot! Any goldens from Sousa’s Goldens in Tiverton RI and/or Tangleloft in Sturbridge MA are a possible match! We will keep trying until we have found a match for Eliot!
