Rocky is my German shepherd of two years. On 28 February we rushed to Gwangju Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $1,550. They have stabilized Rocky, but the treatment can't wait beyond April. Rocky is more than a pet - Rocky is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $165 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to Gwangju Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,550 goes: • Emergency surgery: $900 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $360 • Medication and follow-up visits: $115 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $175 With deep gratitude, Sang-hoon

      Sending love, Sang-hoon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Yekaterinburg

      • Wishing you peace, Sang-hoon. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings

        • praying for you, Sang-hoon. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

          • Sending love. Poor Rocky, hope they feel better soon. Sent it to 13 people at work. Take care

            • So sorry you're going through this, Sang-hoon. This could happen to any of us. Blessings.
