Help Obinna save Willow - surgery needed
A German shepherd named Willow needs emergency surgery - a $150 bill the family can't cover.

Willow is my German shepherd of two years. On 11 August we rushed to Ikeja Animal Hospital with bloat. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $150.
They have stabilized Willow, but the treatment can't wait beyond October.
Willow is more than a pet - Willow is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $20 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 Ikeja Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Willow's recovery.
Where the $150 goes:
• Medication and follow-up visits: $35
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $35
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $80
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
