If you've been following me on FA or Twitter, you know that I've been trying to raise money for my dog's lipoma removal. A few months back she was diagnosed with a large one and it's gotten bigger. So I saw a surgical consultation vet today and it was palpated and biopsied and was found to have 'brown and black gunk' in it with 'little to no fatty cell tissue'.
From what I was told, the lipoma has been squashed downwards to her chest, where a larger tumor has grown atop of it, leading to that large mass that you can see from the photos. Because of the size of it, it's 'endangering her chest cavity' and if left untreated, could either become cancerous OR she'd need her front leg amputated, which is healthy otherwise.
Originally, she was only going to need roughly $3,000 for the surgery but now it's closer to $9,000.
She needs a CT scan to see how big the mass is and if it's safe to operate--and if so, WHERE they can operate and how deep--and then of course the surgery itself. I was denied for Care Credit and Scratch Pay, the only pet insurance payment plans they accept, so I either pay out of pocket, or nothing gets done.
Currently, I'm putting a chunk of every commission away, and all of my Patreon money for the month, but this will still take me over a year to afford on my own. I only make around 10-12k a YEAR and if the surgery is 9k, it's impossible to afford. I merely ask that if folks can't pay to spread the word as time is of the essence. Discord servers, telegram servers, your own FAs, Facebooks, Instagrams, Tiktoks, whatever have you. I don't want her to lose her leg and I definitely don't want her to lose her life so soon, she's only 8. I'll be opening for some adoptables in the coming days to try and make some cash while I finish my queue, and then open for wing-its when I have more wiggle room.
I want to say thank you to everyone who's already donated and spread the word, and I ask for only a bit more help:
