</div>
<div>Yesterday, I made the hardest decision of my life: to let Yoru go.
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div>It still doesn't feel real. I will be grieving a long, long time... he was my best friend. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I'm going to keep this campaign up for awhile to try and recoup some of the costs of his treatment and cremation. Thank you so much to all of you who have already donated.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And for those of you first arriving here, the original story is below.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>************</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Yoru is a 13 yr old sassy void that I have spoiled since kittenhood. He stopped eating and drinking two weeks ago now--the same week I was laid off from my job.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div><strong>He's been through two vet visits, four diagnostic tests, and three medications totaling $900 and we still have no idea what's wrong.</strong> His symptoms have been too vague for the vet to pin down.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The vet currently suspects IBD or some type of colon cancer. They would both be treated the same way at the beginning, so we decided to try fluids and steroids at home instead of more expensive diagnostics. He was responding really well and eating on his own again, so I was hopeful that with a little more time we could get to the bottom of it and put him on the road to recovery.
</div>

<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Today, I noticed his hind legs have become significantly weaker and he can no longer jump to where he wants to go. It's a symptom of yet again a variety of different things--but it's a sign that the underlying condition is worsening.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I can no longer avoid doing the much more expensive, niche tests if I want to get to the bottom of this.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He's had two blood tests, a urine test, and an xray. <strong>The next step is to get either an ultrasound or a GI panel (or both, god forbid) each of which cost $450.</strong> And I imagine I will need another blood test as well, which will run another<strong> $150</strong>.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So... <strong>the initial goal will be $800</strong> to cover one big test + bloodwork, while <strong>the broader goal at $1,500</strong> would also cover the treatment I've already paid for up to this point.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I hate having to ask for this much help, but between living paycheck to paycheck and losing my main source of income, I'm in a tight spot.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Anything at all that you can spare to help ease the financial burden right now would be so appreciated. Every dollar helps while I get my life back together!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He's my baby boy, I love him so much, and I want to give him every chance I can to live. Please, help if you can, even if it's just a share.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for reading,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
