Luckily I had an engangement ring I kept, I sold it.
3 designer purses eBayed.
I couldn't afford the medical care so I dug deep and got in debt.
Was it worth it...absolutely.
Not everyone is fortunate enough to things to hock, but where theres a will you'll find a way.
It may be worth going to other vets and begging if you have to bring a credit report to the office if you have to... |
Yep, I would definitely be begging if I had no other option. I would even offer to scrub the vet's floors...anything!
I am not rolling in money...and I have had to scrape a lot lately for my pups. To me it is all about priorities and we have to sometimes get very creative. FOr me it has been one of those years where things just went wrong all at once...started with my George with the salivary gland that had to be removed...then Cookie with her awful diagnosis of lymphangectasia and Adina with hip surgery. Thousands of dollars...and that is only part of it.
If I had it to do over, every single one of my pups would have insurance.
OP: you might want to get insurance anyway...you just never know when something else can come up!
