PLEASE HELP ME SAVE MY DOG - SHE IS FIGHTING CANCER

trigger warning: sensitive images (contains blood) and the images shared below might be disturbing for some viewers. viewer discretion is advised!

i’ve never imagined myself asking for help like this - but i am in a very desperate and vulnerable state right now. whatever i am doing today, i’m doing it for my baby. i request you all to please read till the end and please hear me out.

my dog Junior is 9 years 7 months old, an indie dog who has been my family, my comfort, and my constant companion. she has been with me through my highs and lows, and has never once left my side. she has always loved me with the purest heart, and i have loved her the same.

Junior has been sick for a couple of months now (there has been this “growth” in her stomach), and has been in-and-out of vet clinics, meeting over 3 doctors in that time frame. medications were prescribed and her diagnosis was unknown as doctors were unable to determine the issue she was facing. last friday, i called a vet home again and asked him to suggest medicines (again) for this “growth” in her stomach as i wasn’t seeing any improvements at all. in fact, her condition had become worse. the doctor prescribed medicines this time too and not even 2 days into changing her medication, Junior faced immediate consequences. her swelling increased and this “growth” in her stomach grew twice in size and this concerned me very much. the medication prescribed on friday was supposed to reduce inflammation and bring down this “growth”. instead, the complete opposite happened. (below is the attached images of how bad her “growth” has progressed).

today, i noticed that her “growth” had burst and blood was oozing out of that area.

i wasted no time, called an uber and rushed to the nearest hospital. upon thorough examination, the vet concluded that it was a mammary-gland-tumour that had grown over time and hence, her diagnosis was finally made. i am going to be honest, i am very disappointed in myself. i used to trust one hospital for my dogs care (i take care of 5 rescued indies), and looking at Junior’s case, i should’ve also tried reaching out to other hospitals to understand the cause of her “growth”. me sticking to one hospital is my irresponsibility and i should’ve consulted somewhere else too. this guilt is never going to leave me, and i hope Junior forgives me for my mistake.

now, the doctors have told that the tumour has to be surgically removed. unfortunately, the medical expenses for her hospitalisation, surgery, and treatment might not seem to be that high as compared to western countries but it’s quite significant here, and it has become difficult to manage everything on my own. i’ve spent majority of my savings on her prior treatment, but this surgery demands more than what i can handle at the moment financially. that’s why i’m reaching out and humbly asking for help.

right now, the vets have given her some steroids and sent samples for blood tests, and she is currently being hospitalised for 5 days. during these days, the doctors will try to bring down her inflammation so that it will be easy to remove the tumour.

i have already deposited a certain amount as per their policy, and hopefully this deposit will cover her 5-day-stay. however, her surgery costs about $110 - and even if you are able to donate a small amount, it would mean the world to us and every donation would go towards Junior’s treatment and recovery. every contribution, no matter how small, will help give her a fighting chance.

if you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this post so it can reach someone who might be able to help.

Junior is not just any dog to me - she is my child, my family, and my whole heart. i just want to do everything i can so that she can get through this. thank you for reading this and thank you for your kindness. please send your prayers and condolences to Junior.

below is the image of the bill issued by the clinic and i am sharing it to show complete transparency so everyone can see exactly where the funds are going. (i have hidden some information due to privacy reasons).

for payment, you could either contribute by:

• buying a Ko-Fi (coffee) - click here for donation.

or you could also contribute through

• PayPal: please message me privately for my PayPal handle.

while donating, please type “for Junior”/“Junior” so i know all contribution is going towards her treatment.

i will update you all in regards to her progress!! thank you so much everyone. your support truly means a lot! i am so very grateful for each and every one of you<3
