Cookies for Roomba - Supply disruption - Send positive thoughts!
As many may know, Dawn of the East holds an annual fundraiser to fund cookies here at Daphneyland. She does this as she fell head over heels with our Roomba several years ago. This year, the Kirkland Cookie which has been part of our feeding guidelines for many years has had several supply disruptions, and now a manufacturing change. Last weekend, Dawn Vankeuren flew to Las Vegas, rented a van and cleared several Costcos of the old stock. Driving 90 boxes of cookies to her Roomba. This was an amazing feat in and of itself. What many might not know is as she landed in Las Vegas - our Roomba crashed. Suddenly becoming completely quadriplegic and non responsive. We thought we had lost him. Scooping him up and rushing him to our vet, we were able to partially recover him, and brought him down to the house for rehab. Dawn got to visit him, and amongst many tears and lots of loves and pets, we are all asking for prayers for our Roomba. He is eating, drinking - moving his head. Some of these photos are Wagyu Beef Hot Dogs that DoE brought from Vegas to tempt his appetite. Last night he started wanting to move around, lets hope he gets back up and decides to stay with us! I am so thankful for a friend of many decades, that falls in love with a little deaf blind gringo, and performs miracles from one coast to another. ... See MoreSee Less

Day #10 of 14 day rest. He stood up!! This is very promising!!!

Enjoying his home cooking with some wagyu beef tidbits. The humans here looked it up. Yep, he's spoiled.

What DOE did was such a pure act of love, it’s hard to find words to express my admiration. And as someone who had a Daphneyland hound who was blind and deaf in her last years, I feel for Roomba and his amazing Dawns. Hoping he can stay just a little bit longer, as the song says.

Oh Roomba, I hope he gets better!! 💕Kirkland biscuits have been pretty difficult to get a hold of now, sucks that we all have to go through that.

I wanna be Dawn of the East when I grow up! Much drool and love from our home to yours for sweet roomba!
