Max is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 11 December we rushed to the Móstoles Emergency Vet Clinic with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $1,150. They have stabilized Max, but the treatment can't wait beyond March. Max is more than a pet - Max got me through my hardest year. 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. Funds will be paid straight to the Móstoles Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Max's recovery. Where the $1,150 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $70 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $230 • Emergency surgery: $850 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Tomás

Updates from Tomás

  1. Thank you all. We're at 31% now ($358). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward emergency surgery.

  2. Quick update: $103 raised so far (9%). I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them. - Tomás

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($58 in total) I made the first payment toward medication and follow-up visits. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    praying for you, Tomás. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Móstoles!

    • Thinking of you. Give Max a hug from me. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

        is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Tomás

        • Rohan B. ThakkarJan 27, 2026

          Poor Max, hope they feel better soon. Wish I lived closer to Jacksonville so I could bring a meal

          • Sending love. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. We're a small family in Mumbai but we're thinking of you. Love from Mumbai.

              this could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Radom so I could bring a meal.

                Best of luck, Tomás. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.

                • So sorry you're going through this, Tomás. Give Max a hug from me. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Seoul.

                    Hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Bogotá donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Bogotá

                      Keep going. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.

                      • keep going. Poor Max, hope they feel better soon. Don't give up. All the best.

                        • So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Amsterdam

                          • Keep going, Tomás. Hope the recovery goes smoothly.
