Max has been my companion since he was just 6 weeks old, and now at 12 years old, he’s truly part of my family. For the past three years, Max has had a lump growing on his head near his ear. When I first had it checked, the vet assured me it wasn’t cancer and suggested leaving it alone. But recently, the lump has started getting bigger, and sometimes it bleeds when Max scratches at it. It’s become clear that it needs to be removed for his comfort and health.

I work hard to provide for Max, but the cost of surgery is more than I can manage on my own. The funds raised will go directly toward Max’s lump removal surgery and any follow-up care he needs to recover and get back to his happy, healthy self. I want to give Max the best chance at a comfortable life, and this procedure is the next step.

It’s not easy for me to ask for help, but I know I can’t do this alone. Any support, whether it’s a donation or sharing Max’s story, would mean the world to us. Thank you for considering helping Max get the care he needs.
