Teddy is my German shepherd of eleven years. On 12 August we rushed to Mombasa Veterinary Centre with pyometra. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $350. They have stabilized Teddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond September. Teddy is more than a pet - Teddy got me through my hardest year. I have already put $30 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 Mombasa Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Teddy's recovery. Where the $350 goes: • Emergency surgery: $185 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $100 • Medication and follow-up visits: $20 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $45 Thank you for reading my story.
