🧵Life update - my dog, Dasher, has cancer.
Doctors yesterday discovered a mass the size of a dinner plate attached to his spleen. The good news is if we can get him surgery soon enough, they can remove the mass (along with his spleen) and he can be OK.
The bad news is that if we don't remove the mass as soon as possible it could rupture and he will bleed out internally.
He presently is not allowed to play, walk up stairs, or just move too quickly in general.
The mass itself is pushing his other organs out place, causing him discomfort and pain and preventing him from eating any food.
He's tentatively scheduled for surgery tomorrow morning, which is estimated to cost in the range of $6800 to $11500.
I've set up a GoFundMe for us, with the initial goal of $6800 to help cover the low end of his veterinary costs.
Any help would be miraculous and greatly appreciated ❤️
Lastly, for the time being, Dasher's Backpack merch profits will go to his vet bills. So if you'd like cool merch that supports Dasher, the link is below!
Like we say: "With a backpack and a can-do attitude, we can do anything." Even beat cancer.
