Kira needs an MRI
Kira has a cerebellar lesion of undetermined cause, but would need an MRI to look at the structure of that portion of the brain.
Nationwide
Abiotrophy is a distinct possibility. Cerebellar abiotrophy (CA), also referred to as the cerebellar cortical abiotrophy (CCA), is a genetic neurological disease in animals best known to affect certain breeds of horses and dogs. It develops when the neurons known as Purkinje cells, located in the cerebellum of the brain, begin to die off. These cells affect balance and coordination.
Please help us raise the funds needed to get Kira her much needed MRI and blood tests.
