Teddy is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 5 August we rushed to Aberdeen Animal Hospital with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $1,900. They have stabilized Teddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Teddy is more than a pet - Teddy is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $230 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 Aberdeen Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Teddy's recovery. Where the $1,900 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $115 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $370 • Emergency surgery: $1,415 Thank you so much. - Tammy

    so sorry you're going through this, Tammy. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

    • sending strength. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
