Help Toby Fight Late-Stage Heart Disease

Donation protected
I've had Toby since he was 6 weeks old. He could fit into the palm of my hand on his gotcha day. I knew from the moment I saw his adoption photo that he was special. Now, 9 years old, he's my entire life. We've experienced so much together. Before I was diagnosed with cancer, he would paw at my abdomen constantly. He has been there for me through so much.

4 years ago, he had an allergic reaction to vaccines, and through treatment, we found he has HCM, heart disease. The first year with atenolol was successful. The following years, we learned the heart disease had become progressive. I've learned today he's in late-stage heart disease, significantly worse than his echo 8 months ago. He also now has asthma.

He's my whole life and as long as he has fight in him, I want to continue fighting for him.

The cost of care is significantly increasing and in the past week alone I have spent $1300, and he will need blood work, more medication, and significantly more visits to the doctor.

I am going to sell everything I can. This is so hard for me to do. I know a lot of us are going through hell right now. I am so overwhelmed and not sure what else to do. Any amount helps. I will continue to post updates and proof of doctor's visits throughout Toby's care.

Thank you for considering.
