Ginger is my three-legged dog of two years. On 7 August we rushed to Rochester Animal Hospital with kidney failure. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $3,600. They have stabilized Ginger, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Ginger is more than a pet - Ginger is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $270 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 Rochester Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals. Where the $3,600 goes: • Emergency surgery: $2,250 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $750 • Medication and follow-up visits: $350 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $250 I hope life is good to you.
