Max is my rescue greyhound of nine years. On 12 August we rushed to the Fukuoka Emergency Vet Clinic with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $1,800. They have stabilized Max, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Max is more than a pet - Max is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $75 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 Fukuoka Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,800 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $260 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $580 • Emergency surgery: $960 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Tomoko

    Outstanding person

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.

  • Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care

    • Keep going, Tomoko. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Fukuoka

      • is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Tomoko.

        • Tomoko Naoko EndoOwnerAnswerID verified

          Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. medication and follow-up visits comes first ($260) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.

      • Wishing you the best, Tomoko. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Toulon.

        • So sorry you're going through this, Tomoko. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. Take care.
