Simba is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 15 August we rushed to Takoradi Animal Hospital with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $450. They have stabilized Simba, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Simba is more than a pet - Simba walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $55 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 Takoradi Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Simba's recovery. Where the $450 goes: • Emergency surgery: $310 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $55 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $85 Every share and every dollar helps. - Francis
