My sweet Tinkerbell needs surgery
Donation protected
Hi everyone my name is Cathy and I want to tell you a little bit about my sweet little Tinkerbell.My girls are growing up and of course have their own lives so on Valentines day last year when I was working I bought my bundle of joy so I'll never feel alone. I love her more than words can say. She has never let me down and she's always there for me. I have been battling severe depression since my mom past away and if it wasn't for my baby keeping me happy I don't know mentally where I would be today. She's always around to knock sense into me and make me realize that life does go on.
Two weeks ago I noticed blood in her urine and took her to the vet. (Bless my sister's heart she paid for it) I not only found out she has a UTI but she has a very large kidney stone and because of it's size and her being a small yorkie it needs to be surgically
removed. My baby goes to Banfield pet hospital and and I am on a plan where you pay each month to cover office visits, immunizations etc. but unfortunatly that's pretty much all it covers. The vet has her on antibiotics for her UTI and she's taking some liver pills because they think that's how she initially got the kidney stone. The vet wants to do surgery asap because if we wait to long and she does try to pass the stone she won't be able to because it's so large and then it will be emergency surgery and life threating. I'm not saying the vet is non compassionate but I was told when I get the money to call her and schedule the surgery. Of course it's about the ole mighty dollar. I lost my job over a year and a half ago and simply do not have any money for her surgery and I do realize times are tough for everyone and I personally would love to help everyone but at this point in my life I can't even help myself. I am not one to beg for anything but when it comes to my baby I would just about do anything for her. I am BEGGING please help my little Tinkerbell. Please don't judge me and say I shouldn't have a pet if I can't afford it because Iv'e already judged myself. I deserve to be happy having a pet like everybody else. She means the world to me and I can't even imagine my life without her.I appriciate you taking the time to read this and may god bless each and everyone of you.
A study conducted by the State University of New York at Buffalo Medical School suggested that in times of stress a dog is likely to be more help in calming you down than a spouse or partner. Most dog owners can guess the reason why: dogs never judge us and never compete with us.
