Biscuit is my dog of two years. On 17 July we rushed to the Envigado Emergency Vet Clinic with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $450. They have stabilized Biscuit, but the treatment can't wait beyond September. Biscuit is more than a pet - Biscuit is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $70 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 Envigado Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals. Where the $450 goes: • Emergency surgery: $290 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $70 • Medication and follow-up visits: $50 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $40 Every share and every dollar helps. - Nuria

Updates from Nuria

  1. Small update. $315 so far, the first invoice got paid this week.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($260 in total) I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Quick update: $205 raised so far (46%). we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  • thinking of you and your family, Nuria. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Valencia donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.

    • Hope things get better soon, Nuria. Give Biscuit a hug from me. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

      • How is Nuria doing now?

        • everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Haarlem so I could bring a meal.

          • Thinking of you, Nuria. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. All the best

            • So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Nairobi this morning.
