<div>Hi, I’m Boston. I’m 9 years old and got hurt saving my dogs from two pit bulls. I had surgery with 38 staples and have more surgeries coming. I’m really nervous about how my leg looks now, and I just want it to feel and look normal again. Please help me and my family while I heal.
</div>

</div>
<div>here’s what I remember. I went outside early in the morning to check the mail because my mommy ordered me some stuff from Amazon. I brought my frenchies outside with me like I always do. Then, out of nowhere, two pit bulls came running toward us and attacked my dogs.
</div>
<div>I tried to save them. I threw the white pit bull off my little Frenchie who just had puppies, and then I tried to get the brown one off my other dog. But then the white pit bull turned around and attacked me. I kept fighting it to protect my dogs until it finally let go.

<div>There was so much blood and even pieces of my skin on the ground. I ran inside to my mommy who was in her room she didn’t even know went outside (but it’s ok, she says I’m old enough to check the mail) and she called 911. At the hospital, they had to put needles in my ankle while I was awake to see if the dog’s teeth went into my joint. It hurt really bad. Then I had surgery because the bites were so deep. The doctors said they couldn’t use lidocaine because I would still feel everything. The dog bit me really deep. I remember every time I hit him her bit me harder.
</div>
<div>I got 38 staples and 3 stitches. My leg looks really bad, and I have to have scar surgery later to help it look better. I’m really nervous for people to see my leg because it looks so scary, and I just want it to look normal again.
</div>
<div>The owners of the dogs won’t tell anyone who they are, so now I have to get rabies shots, and they hurt a lot too. Mommy is trying very hard to find the owners so we can find out if the dogs had rabies shots and if they have I won’t have to get my shots anymore but they won’t tell us who they are. I get sad all the time now, and every time I close my eyes, I see the dog attacking me again. I wish this never happened. I try and be brave because I know mommy is sad this happened.
</div>
<div>Because of my next surgery on October 20th, I can’t go to the Billie Eilish concert I was so excited for, and I might not be able to do Halloween either.
</div>
<div>This has been really hard for me and my family. Any money donated will help with my medical bills and scar revision surgery so my leg can heal and look better again.
</div>

</div>
<div>Thank you so much for reading my story and helping me feel brave.
