I took my dog to get updated vaccinations today and found out he has lymphoma. I’ve been crying all day. He has a biopsy next week just to confirm, but it’s most likely lymphoma and I can’t afford chemotherapy which would be like 10k - 50k. I hate cancer…
Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear that. I can’t even imagine how you must feel right now.

Yeah, cancer sucks. I lost my dog to it last year. It’s the worst feeling.

What kind of cancer did your dog have? I’m just trying to understand all this.
That’s really tough… have you looked into any support groups? Sometimes they can help with costs.

Good idea! I heard some places offer funding for pet treatments.
I totally get it. My friend’s dog had lymphoma too, and it was a rough road. Sending you good vibes!

What did they end up doing? I’m curious about options.

They went the palliative route. It’s not cheap, but it was more manageable.
Thanks for the support, everyone. I really appreciate it. Just trying to stay positive… IDK what I’d do without my pup.

Totally understandable. Just take it one day at a time. You’ve got this!
Have you thought about asking your vet about payment plans? Some places can work with you.

I haven’t, but that’s a good idea… I’ll definitely ask about that!
