Rocky is my dog of thirteen years. On 13 October we rushed to the Riverside Emergency Vet Clinic with bloat. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $2,850. They have stabilized Rocky, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Rocky is more than a pet - Rocky is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $310 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 Riverside Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals. Where the $2,850 goes: • Emergency surgery: $2,050 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $220 • Medication and follow-up visits: $175 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $405 Thank you for reading my story. - Brooks

    Good luck, Brooks. Your post was clear and honest

    • Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Sydney this morning.

      • Praying for you, Brooks. Looking forward to the next update. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Bogotá.

        • Wishing you peace, Brooks. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update.
