Help Tito Get the Surgery He Unexpectedly Needs

TOE REMOVAL SURGERY

Goal: $6,000 USD

Hi all! I’m reaching out to ask for your support in helping my beloved dog, Tito, get the surgery he urgently needs. *EDIT* - He needs a toe removed. They want to make sure it isn't cancerous and because antibiotics don't seem to be able to help with the infection- they are concerned it will get worse.

Tito is not just a dog; he is my everything. He’s my constant companion, my best friend, and truly my family here in Providence. Tito has been by my side for 8 and a half years, and I’ve cherished every moment of it. He’s been with me through thick and thin, offering unconditional love and joy. He’s my son, my love, and my world.

For the past 7 months to a year, Tito has been battling a painful infection in his paw (toe, digit). Despite all the love and care I’ve given him, and despite trying numerous costly medications and treatments, his condition hasn’t improved. Unfortunately, it has become clear that Tito now needs surgery to treat this infection and give him the chance to heal properly.

The estimated cost of his surgery ranges from $4,642 to $6,107, depending on the specifics of the procedure. I am required to pay the "low end" estimate upon arrival the day of surgery this Thursday. I’m doing everything I can to make sure Tito gets the medical care he deserves. I understand that there are far worse tragedies happening, but the cost is more than I can afford on my own.

Any amount, no matter how small, would mean the world to us. Tito has been my rock for so many years, and I would do anything to make this pain go away for him.

How the Funds Will Be Used:

The funds will go directly towards Tito’s surgery, covering the cost of the procedure and any necessary follow-up care. I’m hoping to raise enough to make sure Tito’s surgery and recovery go smoothly, so he can return to his joyful, playful self. Any extra funds will be donated to other mutual aid funds. I will show receipts if that is the case.

I’m beyond grateful for any donation or share you can offer. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping Tito. It means everything to us.

With love,

Kim and Tito ❤️
