Helping Lucky Heal
Dear Friends and Animal Lovers,
My name is Thuy Duong, and I’m reaching out to share the story of my beloved cat, Lucky. Recently, Lucky suffered a tragic accident and fell from our balcony ( 5th floor to Ground floor), resulting in a fractured jaw and hard palate. This has been an incredibly difficult time for both of us, as Lucky is not just a pet; she’s a cherished member of our family.
The veterinary team has recommended complex orthopedic surgery to repair her jaw, which will involve placing an external fixator and conducting a CT scan to assess the full extent of her injuries. The total cost for her surgery and necessary follow-up care is approximately $10,000, a sum that feels overwhelming but is essential for giving Lucky a chance at a pain-free life.
Why This Matters
Lucky has brought so much joy and companionship into my life. She is playful, loving, and has an incredible spirit. Without this surgery, her fractures are unlikely to heal properly, leading to long-term pain and suffering. The thought of losing her is unbearable, and I want to do everything I can to ensure she receives the care she desperately needs.
How Your Contributions Will Help
The funds raised will go directly towards:
- CT Scan: To assess the extent of her injuries.
- Orthopedic Surgery: To repair her fractured jaw and fracture of the hard palate in her mouth.
- Feeding Tube Placement: To ensure she receives proper nutrition during her recovery.
- Follow-Up Care: Including consultations and necessary treatments over the next several weeks.
Every donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in Lucky's journey to recovery. Your support means the world to us, and together, we can give Lucky the second chance she deserves.
Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for considering helping us in this challenging time.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Thuy Duong
