Luna's a foreign object blocking the intestines: help with the vet bill

A dog named Luna needs orthopedic surgery - a $350 bill the family can't cover.

Luna is my dog of nine years. On 16 May we rushed to Kochi Animal Hospital with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $350. They have stabilized Luna, but the treatment can't wait beyond August. Luna is more than a pet - Luna is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $60 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 Kochi Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Luna's recovery. Where the $350 goes: • Emergency surgery: $210 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $100 • Medication and follow-up visits: $20 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $20 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
