A dog named Sunny needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $3,100 bill the family can't cover.

Sunny is my dog of six years. On 7 January we rushed to Orlando Animal Hospital with bloat. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $3,100.
They have stabilized Sunny, but the treatment can't wait beyond April.
Sunny is more than a pet - Sunny is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $160 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 Orlando Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Sunny's recovery.
Where the $3,100 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $1,650
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $750
• Medication and follow-up visits: $340
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $360
Thanks for reading all this.

Updates from Araceli
Update from Orlando: I made the first payment toward emergency surgery. We're at 63% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us. - Araceli
47% there. the plan for medication and follow-up visits is now scheduled. Thank you.
Thank you all. We're at 26% now ($817). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts.

Take care, Araceli. Hope you get there. Don't give up. All the best.
wishing you the best, Araceli. Poor Sunny, hope they feel better soon. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Orlando.
Poor Sunny, hope they feel better soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 23 people at work. All the best.
sending love, Araceli. Shared it with a few friends.
Hang in there. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Orlando.
