We Need Help!

Enjoying a break at the playground after a trip to the fabric store!
I am starting to get frustrated and really scared. I have called the vet a couple of times now trying to get more information about what is going on and I haven't heard back yet. Each time I call they tell me the doctor has been busy with patients all day, he hasn't had time to write up an estimate for us. They tell me someone will call me back within 24 hours. No one does. I call again. I am frustrated that it feels like they said "by the way, your dog has cancer" and then just left me hanging for almost 2 weeks now. When I don't know what is going on my mind starts filling in the blanks with a lot of fear and anxiety! It is very overwhelming.

I was able to find out that we are eligible for the financial need discount, but only for 50%. A person's income must have to be less than zero to qualify for the full 80% discount. I am grateful for any discount, but we live far, far below the poverty line. My monthly income is less than half of our rent and my husband's isn't much more. We are both disabled so it's not like we can just go out and get a job to pay for the surgery. Our budget is also taking a big hit to pay for her cannabis oil. Luckily we can make the oil ourselves so it is much cheaper. Still prohibitively high priced to buy all of the materials though. We really need some help.

Hard to gauge the size, I can't seem to take the pictures from the same angle each time. July 13, 2014.

Got all of the oil off to apply fresh. July 13, 2014.
If anyone would like to donate to help pay for her care it would be appreciated so much. You can contact me or donate via PayPal at juliethies@gmail.com. Or you could purchase items from my Etsy shop so you get something for your donation. Any amount that you are able would be deeply appreciated. Every penny counts right now.

I can't express how much Pheona means to me. She is my constant companion and soothes my anxiety in a way that medication never could. It breaks my heart that I can't afford to get her the best possible care. I don't like asking for help, but for her, I will do anything. Please help us.
