Hi folks, Eleanor has needed a lot of medical treatment while I've had her and I've been able to cover it, thank goodness, with help from my family. This time I could use some assistance.
After a brief and agonizing dog park accident, Eleanor broke her right rear leg... and it broke because the bone had been weakened by the dreaded osteosarcoma OR, it turns out, fungal osteomyelitis. I struggled to convince myself to put her down then and there since she has preexisting orthopedic issues, but I couldn't bear to do it. I chose to have her leg amputated in the hopes of getting more time with her.
Times suck right now for everyone and spending so much on a dog feels like a selfish choice! But she has proven again and again that she can bounce back from serious medical shit with the same lust for life (and eating grass) as ever. If you can chip in, I'd be so grateful.
