Rocky's a tumor on the spleen: help with the vet bill
A rescue greyhound named Rocky needs orthopedic surgery - a $400 bill the family can't cover.

Rocky is my rescue greyhound of eleven years. On 22 July we rushed to Córdoba Veterinary Centre with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $400.
They have stabilized Rocky, but the treatment can't wait beyond September.
Rocky is more than a pet - Rocky is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $50 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 Córdoba Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Rocky's recovery.
Where the $400 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $290
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $40
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $70
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you and your family, Yolanda. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Córdoba.
Thinking of you and your family, Yolanda. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Dwarka
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. Love from Mardan.
best of luck. Poor Rocky, hope they feel better soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected!
So sorry you're going through this, Yolanda. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. Thinking of Córdoba

you're not alone, Yolanda. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in São Paulo but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Córdoba.
