Frankie’s Friends helped Lover receive life-saving surgery to remove a foreign body.
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart for considering helping Lover receive the urgent medical care he needs. Lover is not just a dog to us. He is part of our family, deeply loved by me and by my four children. He has grown up in our home, been beside us through ordinary days and difficult ones, and has brought comfort, laughter, gentleness, and joy into our lives in a way only a beloved family dog can.
Facing a life-threatening bowel obstruction has been terrifying. It is heartbreaking to know that the care Lover needs may come down to finances when all we want is the chance to help him live. As a single mom of four children working in a nonprofit shelter, I do meaningful work serving others, but I do not make enough to have a savings account large enough for an unexpected emergency surgery like this. I have done everything I can, but the cost of emergency veterinary care is more than I can carry alone.
Your generosity means more than financial help. It means relief in a moment of panic. It means hope when I am trying to stay strong for my children. It means my kids do not have to watch their beloved dog suffer simply because their mom could not afford the care he needed. It means Lover has a chance.
Thank you for seeing the value of his life and the love our family has for him. Thank you for helping families like mine when we are facing impossible decisions. Your compassion is a gift we will never forget.”
