Smiley Riley's Cancer Treatments

Hey everybody, my daughter Tamara's dog Riley just turned 8 and now he's in for the fight of his life. He's got cancer and she just can't handle this.  She has not left his side since news broke out of the blue a week ago. I'm really worried about her. She's so heartbroken and a mess physcially, emotionally and financially. So that's why I'm doing a favor for my daughter and starting this thing.


Riley is her life. Her only pet. They are inseparable so there was no hesitation on her part to fight for him, no matter the cost. He's got a rare form called Mediastinal Lymphoma. It's an aggressive tumor in front of the heart that can make breathing labored and painful and also started to shut down his kidneys.


My daughter is struggling. She's in between homes without a place so they've been here with us. Her job has long hours at night and doesn't pay good. I'm really worried. And now Riley needs a long 25 week Chemotherapy program to push the cancer into remission (the only good thing is there's an 80-90% success rate). 

Riley's brought so much joy to so many at events in the area. Everyone loves him. He smiles all the time. In fact, he's so sweet and happy that he's made the newspaper here three different times (on the front cover twice). Please have a heart for him.  Please help and share. Riley's strong, and not going without a fight, or a wet kiss on the nose.
