Maple is my rescue greyhound of six years. On 25 August we rushed to the Grand Rapids Emergency Vet Clinic with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $1,650. They have stabilized Maple, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Maple is more than a pet - Maple is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $190 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to the Grand Rapids Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,650 goes: • Emergency surgery: $610 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $620 • Medication and follow-up visits: $210 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $210 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Miguel

      Thank you. If you're in Grand Rapids I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.

  • So sorry you're going through this, Miguel. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Grand Rapids

    • Take care, Miguel. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Bahir Dar.

      • Sending strength, Miguel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

        • Good luck, Miguel. Give Maple a hug from me. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double

          • Hope it all works out, Miguel. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update.

            • Hope the recovery goes smoothly. Thinking of Grand Rapids.
