Freya's Cancer Fund
Donation protected
On January 25th, we took Freya in for an ultrasound and found a 9cm mass on her liver, with all signs pointing to cancer.
First off, I want to say we got extremely lucky that we were able to catch it so early. Based on the tests we've already been able to run for her, our vet team has not seen any signs of cancer anywhere else in her body, and while the mass itself is big and scary, Freya is not outwardly presenting any clinical signs. She's the same bouncy, happy girl she always has been (just a bit more out of breath these days). I also work for an incredible company that has her completely covered with insurance, so our out-of-pocket cost is less than what we'd normally have to pay.
However, having a dog with cancer is expensive. Like, really expensive. I'm including a few estimates so far, as well as what our estimated out-of-pocket cost for her two most expensive treatments will be, which comes out to about $2,000 alone. This doesn't include any post-surgery treatments, additional lab work, prescription foods, etc. that may be needed after surgery.
If you know me, you know I hate admitting I need help and hate asking for help even more. But I think we might need help to keep this little dog alive. Anything you can offer is so appreciated, more than you will ever imagine. She's only just 7 years old and I'm just not ready for her to leave this world.
