Help Beatrix save Luna - surgery needed
Luna, Beatrix's three-legged dog, needs urgent treatment for a broken leg after a road accident costing $550.

Luna is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 8 April we rushed to Cape Town Animal Hospital with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $550.
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 $80 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 Cape Town Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Luna's recovery.
Where the $550 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $320
• Hospitalization (4 nights): $110
• Medication and follow-up visits: $55
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $65
Glad we found this place.

19% there. I made the first payment toward diagnostics. Thank you.
Thank you all. We're at 18% now ($98). I'm honestly stunned. the first invoice got paid this week.
Quick update: $25 raised so far (5%). I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them. - Beatrix

how is Beatrix doing now?
Thanks for sharing this, Beatrix. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Cape Town.
Sending good thoughts, Beatrix. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Best of luck, Beatrix. Hope you get there. Take care.
Best of luck. Looking forward to the next update. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Corpus Christi.
thanks for sharing this. Hope this works out for you. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Saket
