Simba is my three-legged dog of nine years. On 24 December we rushed to Nagpur Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $500. They have stabilized Simba, but the treatment can't wait beyond February. Simba is more than a pet - Simba walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $20 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 Nagpur Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Simba's recovery. Where the $500 goes: • Emergency surgery: $360 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $75 • Medication and follow-up visits: $50 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $15 With deep gratitude, Dola

    Hang in there, Dola. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

    • how is Dola doing now?

      • Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Hanoi donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Hanoi.

        • Praying for you, Dola. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

          • Looking forward to the next update. Love from Newcastle upon Tyne.

            • Sending good thoughts, Dola. Give Simba a hug from me. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Stockholm.

              • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Dola.
