I’m sure B&P readers are familiar with Mike Firesmith and know of his love for animals, especially the ones he has. His dog Lucas has a bad tumor or his face that will kill him in just a few months if nothing is done. Lucas will undergo surgery on Tuesday at the University of Florida Small Animal Hospital in Gainesville in a bid to try to save his life.
You can read about Mike’s decision to opt for the surgery here. You can also make a donation on that page to help defray what are sure to be substantial medical bills.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Mike and Lucas during this trying time.
Sending good wishes and prayers. Made a donation.
Gotta Love that little Lucas’s eyes. They say “Survivor”. š
Sending thoughts and well wishes to Lucas…
Hoping for the best for Lucas. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.
I know from personal experience that tumor surgery for pets is very expensive. Please help Mike get through this by making a donation.
Thank you.
You have no idea how much this means to me. Several people from this site have opened their hearts and their checking accounts and I am flatly overwhelmed.
This sort of generosity overwhelms me. Lucas is up and walking around at the hospital. He’s still bleeding a bit and he’s not eating yet.
More when I know more!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a beautiful baby! I love all dogs, but I have a soft spot for blue ones, and white ones. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. He looks so much like my Chaos! I’m glad to hear he’s doing well.
Mike you take good care of Lucas. I’ve donated a little and will again when I can afford. My cat Wolfie under went cancer surgery 10 years ago, so he sends his well wishes as well.
