Meow! i need a lumpectomy
Donation protected
My cat is 12 years old, and recently got blood and urine analysis confirming that he has early kidney decline but is in otherwise good health for his age. However, a small barley sized lump we've been monitoring for a few years has now grown to a pea size and it needs to be removed for biopsy. This procedure would normally cost 1200 dollars. Fortunately I had made a plea to the VOKRA board a half year ago in regards to some concerning weight-loss and was patiently waiting for approval to get funded for blood tests and a dental surgery he badly needs. We finally got the funding 3 weeks ago and finally got to go see the vet. His dental surgery is in 2 weeks. The timing couldn't he more serendipitous, for the lump to have changed. I inquired with the vet hospital about utilizing the dental procedure to have the lump removed while he is under anesthesia. Sort of piggy back the opportunity, to be more cost effective. I feel really blessed to have the support of VOKRA for all of his urgent care, but I also recognize that i cannot ask for more money now that this new issue with the lump has come up. I am seeking to raise the funds for the lumpectomy on here, hoping that if enough people want to donate a small amount i can raise the remaing $350 needed to get the procedure done.
I hope and pray for this support. Please help if you can, and if not i completely understand. Times are tough for everyone right now.
