Setagaya
Nala is my rescue greyhound of eleven years. On 11 September we rushed to Setagaya Animal Hospital with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $1,900. They have stabilized Nala, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Nala is more than a pet - Nala is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $260 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 Setagaya Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Nala's recovery. Where the $1,900 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,350 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $290 • Medication and follow-up visits: $120 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $140 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
