Emily K Eichelberger hasn't added a story.
Dear Friends & Family,
Many of you already know my good pal Lollie. If not,
let me give a little backstory. First of all, Lollie is a cat. I
picked him off the streets as a newborn kitten in 2004. Since then he
has been with me through thick and thin. He's moved with me once for
every year of his life (that's ten whole times!). He's travelled
overseas with me. He's a ferocious jungle beast, a great snuggler,
handsom guy and best friend.
This past Friday I noticed a growth on Lollie's
paw which was later diagnosed as a cancerous sarcoma by Penn
Veterinary Hospital. The treatment for this type of cancer would be to
remove as much of the tumor as possible. This would require removing
one or two of his toes as well, however his mobility should not be
affected. There is no question in my mind that this is what's best for
him. It's been hard coming to terms with the reality of the situation
and was just made worse when given an estimate for this procedure.
For the surgery, biopsy, overnight hospital stay, and
radiographs the total estimated cost is $2000-$2500. Call me fiscally
irrisponsible, but this going to be a little tight.
I didn't want to have to ask anyone for money, but if you've ever met
Lollie, seen a photo of him doing something goofy, know the feeling of
unexpected medical bills, and want to throw a couple bucks my way,
anything to soften the blow would be so appreciated.
Thanks for reading this whole thing.
<3 Emily & Lollieman
