As many friends and family know, Ethan got his first Diabetic Alert Dog (D.A.D) back in 2014. We had Hero for 4 or 5 years before he was hit by a truck. That dog was Ethan’s best friend and saved his life on more than one occasion. Hero alerted to night time low blood sugars , waking me up so I could fix the problem more than once. Ethan has been on a waiting list for another dog but we were kind of waiting until Ethan was finished with college and had the time to devote to a new DAD. He graduates from college this May and we are again on the list for a new DAD. We expect to be eligible this year, therefore we are starting a fundraiser to help out with the cost of the DAD, training, flight to and from the trainer and other expenses . I’ll have more info about our fundraising efforts soon but I plan to start out making cupcakes for the next few months and donating proceeds to Ethan Oldham to help cover the costs. We will set up a bank account strictly for Ethan’s DAD expenses and will gladly accept donations as well. I plan to add other items to our fundraiser such as pupcakes for your canine friends and maybe some other homemade dog treats as well. Just shoot me a message if you’re interested in some cupcakes or pupcakes for a good cause. Thanks!!!
