Luna is my rescue greyhound of nine years. On 16 May we rushed to the Jinja Emergency Vet Clinic with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $150. They have stabilized Luna, but the treatment can't wait beyond July. Luna is more than a pet - Luna is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $40 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 the Jinja Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Luna's recovery. Where the $150 goes: • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $25 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $95 • Medication and follow-up visits: $30 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Akoth
