Please Help Jasmin Fighting Cancer

Donation protected
We rescue Jasmin on May, 2010 at Rotts of friends - Woodland. Our life has change in a possitive way since then. We didn't have any children, so to us, she is our daughter, not just a dog. When we met the first time, Jasmin licks my hands and look at us like she wants to say something, I can say she is like a human being, not just a dog. The moment I open my car to get the water bottle (it's was very hot), she then jumps in and sit in my car, refuse to leave until I promise "okay papa & mama will bring you home".

She can understand what we (human being) speaking. She is very nice and friendly not just with people but also for other species like birds.

She sleeps with us in the same bed . She loves to watch tv, especially the "cat movie" type. She loves the beach, watching the birds flying above. There was time she sit next to a small bird (Pigeon?) at park, that can't not fly to get my attention to save that bird. Every evening, she sits and waits near front door to be the first person know "papa home".

The picture I attach is her picture just in May 2020, I celebrate her birthday (I select the day she joins our family as her birthday) -  She is very happy because she knows that we care about her, not just because of the birthday cake. She loves piano music, and whenever I turn on her favorite song, she will run and lies down next to the computer to enjoy. Jasmin actually our daughter, not just a dog. When I talk to her, she listening, then what she likes, she will wag her tail, even have some action in her mouth like she talks back. And when I kiss her, she will kiss me back - see the video.  We try to do our best to give Jasmin a happy life.

Jasmin was very strong and rarely sick since I adoppted her. On July 24, when I back home from work, suddenly notice a big hard lump on her left shoulder, size about an egg. This lump suddenly come out of nowhere, like appears overnight! We then start to run against the clock, because we notice the size change rapidly, and we know if the mass keep growing then it can grow to the size that surgery is not an option any more.

Unfortunately, no matter how we try, how many phone calls I made, we cannot reach the vet immediately - Have to wait for weeks for appointment, then after that, at least 5 days for biopsy lab report. Test come after tests and it costly. I am the only one have a low income job in family, but Jasmin is all we have  so we try and spend whatever we have to save her life, knock all the doors I can knock to get help. The mass now is at the size as an orange that make her limping and in pain, from a very happy and active dog, now she lies down, rarely move most of the day, I carry her out when she need to pee, and carry her back..

On Aug 31, she had a CT Scan at Sage Campbell, and it turn out she has soft tissue sacroma. With radiation treatment, she might have a year, also can shrink the tumor about 25% which can help her more comfortable to walk again, and she can see the sun rise and sun set 365 times more. Without any treatment, then only month! I spent all credit cards I have, more than $7,000 since 23/7 for the biopsy, ct scan, consultant, blood work etc, and now for the treatment therapy, it will cost from $12,000 .

Jasmin is everything to us - Please help save Jasmin, give her more time stay wtih us. I have no other doors to knock. Please give me a hand to save Jasmin. Give her more days to stay in this beautiful earth and smile again. Please donate anything you can - no donation is too small. I know times are tough for many people out there and your kindness will never be forgotten.

Here is the link to her video, the mass now is bigger than what you see in the video.
