If you have never had a bulldog before, I honestly would not recomend it. A bully is A LOT of work on their own, let alone one with all of these special needs, not to mention the extreme cost of vet care that insurance will not cover. I understand your compassion and willingness to help butvI am sure that if they get with a resuce they will be able to find a home capable of giving him the care he needs. If you have had a bulldog before and have a good sized disposable income and don't work or work from home then by all means go for it.
