so, *oneoftwo has this lovely little pug named Makoto.  however, Makoto has a spinal disorder (a situation i sympathize with greatly as i have one of my own) and is requiring extensive medical treatments.  as for a human, however, these tests and treatments are going to be expensive.

if you would, please click the following donation image and read more about this adorable dog.  then, if you're able, please make a small donation to help my buddy out.



UPDATE: (from *oneoftwo's journal)

We got word on Makoto's Prognosis. The Surgeons at U-Penn want to do reconstructive surgery on his spinal cord to relieve some of the pressure on his central nerve cord. This is a process that is not only difficult to do, but it is very costly. To top matters being worse, we found out that the insurance company that Makoto was enrolled with will not refund us any of the money we have already put up front for his MRI (Thanks for the donations you all have given us so far! As it has covered those costs).

However, the bad news is that Makoto's surgery will cost anywhere from 4 to 6 thousand dollars.

We need your donations now more then ever! So if you can't donate anything, please Reblog this EVERYWHERE you can. We're between a rock and a hard place regarding Makoto's situation but we're not giving up on him!

Thank you,

-Julie and Amanda
