Bianca’s mother passed away suddenly, leaving Apollo (the ancient Greek god of healing) to her. Apollo was one of the few things bringing Bianca joy in the weeks of turmoil that followed. Then he lost his mobility in his back two legs. Bianca, a mother of two, had no funds saved for an emergency like this, but she refused to let Apollo suffer. She was in a situation that no pet owner ever wanted to be in, choosing between two horrible outcomes.

Apollo had ruptured two discs in his back, causing nerve compression. When HEALS heard of this, we sprung into action, hoping to ease the burden on this overworked mother. Thanks to our generous network and donors, we made a difference in their lives. We were able to fully fund Apollo’s surgery, and help him on the path towards recovery.

Apollo healed many others, and we managed to heal him. His impact in his community is strong, and with your help, we saved him.

Filya served in a search & rescue unit, and sustained major wounds in combat, earning a Purple Heart and Distinguished Service Medal. Even after his time in the military was up, he still continued to protect and serve, offering comfort and support to those in his community. However, his biggest wound happened after the war, suddenly collapsing with no sign as to why.

We rushed into action, raising funds for our furry veteran. We helped discover the problems that Filya was having. After doing so, however, we decided to abandon this case after having trouble with his owner not agreeing with our decisions.

However, Filya managed to pull through even without our help, and he lives on today.
