Adama
Tucker is my German shepherd of six years. On 28 March we rushed to Adama Animal Hospital with bloat. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $350. They have stabilized Tucker, but the treatment can't wait beyond June. Tucker is more than a pet - Tucker is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $35 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 Adama Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Tucker's recovery. Where the $350 goes: • Emergency surgery: $260 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $50 • Medication and follow-up visits: $15 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $25 Thank you for reading my story.

          Sending love, Selamawit. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Setagaya so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
