Welcome to Balto's Journal
Regarding this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7187066
I wanted to take a moment to thank you all for your generous contributions and for your kind thoughts and well wishes. Words are not enough to express how grateful I am for your help. Never did I imagine this kind of response from the furry community. At best I had only anticipated raising about $200 or so towards this bill.
This was such an unexpected surprise to see the reaction from the furry community. In the past when it came to furries I have always had bad experiences however this time when it really mattered, I was never so happy to be proven wrong. Clearly not everyone in the fandom is bad apple. You my friends were that exception and it warms my heart to know that within the fandom there are such wonderful people in it like yourselves.
With that being said , I am pleased to report that due to your generous contributions I was able to raise well over half of this expense. More than enough to take any worry off this bill for me. I want to express to each and everyone of you who helped, my sincere gratitude. I pray that your kindness and generosity will return to you 1000 times greater and may you also find the same kindness and generosity in your time of need.
Today I took Charlie to the vet and he began his treatment for the heartworns. I was told by the vet that he is doing fine and should make a good recovery. He will undergo a 3 month treatment for this (3 injections of the heartworm medication) It was fortunate I had caught this when I did. Had this been caught much later (which could have easily happened) the outcome would have been more bleak. Oddly enough Charlie is suffering from the canine equivalent of the same scare I personally had in June of 2011 (congestive heart failure in humans) as the heartworms enlarge the heart and reduce thr oxygen in the blood . So I know the severity of how this could have ended and like with myself because it was caught early a disaster was overted.
Again thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you have done. Both Charlie and I appreciate you very very much.

Oh.. and the talk I went to was Buckhopper's Furry Basketball Assoc., and it was good!
Thanks for all the kind words about my cartooning as well. It was a blast sharing it with you and Teaselbone.
I am very happy to have helped with donating through objects you can sell for Charlies benefit as well as donating a commission I made during the con. I'd do anything for a dog, especially a German Shepherd. They're my most favorite breed and I always been loved and piled upon by sheppies case they're so cute and adorable.
Thank you very much for the sketches and the one original and a art book you gave me, oh yeah the buttons too.
