Hi friends of Oso

Last week, the goodest boy in all the land nearly left us when a splenic tumor burst and caused excessive bleeding in his abdomen. As his human liaison faced with hard decisions and no time to lose, I chose to do everything in my power to keep him alive. Many of you prayed for and sent your love to Oso, and thanks to you and his strong will, his emergency surgery and blood transfusion were successful, and he is recovering better than could have ever been expected so far. We're now expecting him to make a full turn around and live out the rest of his years normally. Oh thank dog!

This is an enormous relief. However, this life-saving veterinary operation was not cheap, and now I've found myself in quite a lot of debt (about $9k). If I spend five years paying it off myself, it was still worth every penny, but I'm hoping that there's another way

Oso is such an important part of my life - I treasure him more than anything, I don't know who I would even be without him, he's the best friend I've ever had. And he has such an incredible community of friends and fans all over the world who know and love him. If everyone chipped in just a little bit to his surgery fund, it would help our lives immensely, and you'd be retroactively contributing to Oso still being alive and kickin

I know there're a lot of causes in this world that require our collective contributions - please consider this one among them. For every contribution $50 and up, I will send you a personal postcard in the mail to express our immense appreciation for your help. Thank you so much
