Bruno is my three-legged dog of six years. On 5 April we rushed to Girona Animal Hospital with severe tick fever. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $1,650. They have stabilized Bruno, but the treatment can't wait beyond June. Bruno is more than a pet - Bruno got me through my hardest year. I have already put $140 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. Funds will be paid straight to Girona Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Bruno's recovery. Where the $1,650 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $170 • Emergency surgery: $1,400 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $80 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Karina
