For the love of Bella - spinal surgery for IVDD
Donation protected
Bella is my son's emotional support animal after we went through a traumatic divorce. Bella is turning 3 in January so she has so much life left to be by my son's side. When we found out, my son was beside himself with grief. I cannot allow something like this to happen to Bella or my son without at least trying my very best to fix this. I appreciate any tiny bit of help. Everything counts.
The vet said the disc is in her upper back and is causing bruising on her spinal cord. It is very painful and will eventually cause Bella to loose the ability to use her back legs. If left alone it could cause loss of control of her bowels and bladder. It could also cause very premature death. The surgery has has a very high rate of success and would promise to return her to a normal pain free life. The cost includes payment for CT scans, MRIs, surgery, anesthesia, fluids and after care.
My name is Bella. I found out today that I have IVDD. This means I have a slipped disc in my spine that causes alot of pain because it is putting pressure on my spinal cord. I can't walk around and I don't want to eat because it hurts so much. I was told that eventually I could loose the ability to go to the bathroom or this will paralyze me. Or even worse, cause me to pass away. My boy is very worried and sad. I really need help to pay for my spinal surgery as well as all the tests and care from the doctor. This can take away my pain and allow me run around and play with my boy again. It will also save my life. I hope you are willing to help me. I don't want my boy to be sad or cry anymore. I want to be my silly sweet self again.
