I'm "finally" re-trying my wish !!! {Why it took so long - long story}.
There are an awesome number of wishes each week; I just ask, that 'this week' you please, Please, PLEASE pick me !!!
My companion cat, Bandit, has been diabetic for over two years. Therefore, should he get sick, it can be serious. On March 8th, he began throwing up and couldn't keep anything down - so I rushed him to the Pet Emergency Hospital. They did tests; an IV; meds; etc. I brought him home the following afternoon. Later it started again; then he quit eating & drinking; continued to throw up until it was just foam ~ so per my Vet, again rushed him back to the Hosp.
During the first trip, I had called the local Pet Assistance, and got a $75 donation from United Animal Nations to the Hosp.; and a website to contact. I also told the Pet Hosp. I was on Disability, and didn't know how I would pay the bill. [They, in addition to my Vet, kept telling me to apply for Care Credit - this too is a long story, 'but', the -ultimate mess- I am in; with HORRENDOUS interest & payments !!!]
In my state of panic and frenzy and an anxiety attack or two - I later, stupidly, applied for Care Credit, AFTER, having written numerous detailed emails to a pet foundation, whose addy I got through Pet Assistance.
Here is the breakdown of the bill -after- the $75 donation: $3,346 [minus a one time only grant of $500 from AAHA Helping Pets Fund; minus $18, rtn'd 6 cans of Rx cat food; minus $10 from donation of 1st time for this wish] = $2,818.00.
"I" even ended up in the E.R. for 18 hrs. during all of this !!!
Please help me !!! I'm on SSI, and all the other pet foundations I have contacted do not donate "after the fact" -or- "once treatment has begun" !!! [I don't know how they expect you to know about them, let alone go through all the BS -before- your pet gets -any- treatment, when they are on the brink of death !!!]
Bandit is all I have left; and he is such a SWEET BOY !!! He helps with my B.P.; the depression times from my severe pain & illnesses. We play; he keeps me on my toes; & is great company !!! Please help me with this enormous bill !!!
I would truly appreciate donations too !!!
Thank you all so very very much, and God bless ! (more)
