Sara's Veterinary Bill

My dog Sara had a scary episode last month that I was financially unprepared for.  She had a badly infected tooth that required surgery, so an emergency vet visit for antibiotics, an examination at her regular vet the next week, and then her surgery has set me back over $2500!

I live hand-to mouth, so I cobbled this money together - $950 on a credit card, $841 on loan from my sister, and the balance from my October mortgage payment.

Sara is feeling MUCH better now, but I don't know how I'm going to cover the cost. I couldn't let my girl suffer. She's my best friend AND my security system. Any help you can provide will help me recover from this unexpected expense.
