Ziggy is my dog of three years. On 3 January we rushed to Los Angeles Animal Hospital with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $2,750. They have stabilized Ziggy, but the treatment can't wait beyond February. Ziggy is more than a pet - Ziggy got me through my hardest year. 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. Funds will be paid straight to Los Angeles Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ziggy's recovery. Where the $2,750 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,700 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $550 • Medication and follow-up visits: $340 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $160 Thank you for reading my story. - Long

  • Thinking of you and your family, Long. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Ikeja this morning. Thinking of Los Angeles.

    • Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Mumbai so I could bring a meal. God bless.

      • Hang in there, Long. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted

        • Good luck, Long. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours.
