This tiny girl was surrendered when her sphincter incontinence became too much to manage. We will have a consult with our surgeon for treatment plan and update.

UPDATE
Allie had surgery to enlarge her anus. She is on stool softener/laxative until she heals.
Her adopter must be prepared to help this little girl maintain proper elimination and hygiene. She will likely requires stool softeners for the rest of her life, but there is a chance she can manage without it. Only time will tell.
She has required enemas on a regular basis to help her live some-what comfortably. We are hopeful the surgery has addressed this concern, but again, only time will tell.
