hello im Gail and here in uruguay with my daughter myriah. we came to uruguay many years ago not realizing that we were going to be rescuing animals and doing service with animals that made it hard to leave uruguay. after being here for many years we are really missing our friends and family back in the states and want to return so badly. We have lived a harder life here in uruguay, with many challenges, of speaking the language and most of all to support ourselves and all the animals we have rescued and love and consider our family. We both have become very sad living here, missing our family, our friends and our home land. we have 3 older dogs, and 7 cats. one of our dogs, NICO is 12 years old and is extra sensitive and needs special care. we have been with we have been with him since he was a baby . when someone threw him off of a truck into our yard early one morning. our other dog Sophia is also 12 and was put in my yard 2 months after nico.. she is amazing and loves to dance. our other dog is Francis and she is 10 she is amazing little coliie and was found in the rain at 3 months old alone on the hightway. we also have 7 cats. i have a story for all of them but for 4 of them, my daughter found them in the garbage, someone had left them there needing their mother to feed them. we fed them by bottle for 2 months and now they are amazing and we love them dearly. our biggest fear is to get them all back to the usa with us and we are needing help financially, emotionally , and physically so i am here hoping we can touch the hearts of animal lovers that understand how much this means to us and could possibly help us. i am 70 years old massage therapist and have done healing and giving my whole life.
