Nyla is a 8-year-old Labrador mix in Plantation , FL, who needs $1,850 for Radiation.

Nyla came into our lives 8 years ago where I got her from a private seller on Craigslist. She has been healthy her whole life. She loves to cuddle and go running. She is the most loving and smart pup. We got her a brother 6 months ago so she could have a best friend. They are inseparable now. Nyla is very unique and has helped my family overcome so many emotional roller coasters.

Nyla loves to cuddle under the blankets in the middle of the bed. She loves to play fetch and play with her brother. She enjoys laying on a picnic blanket and sunbathing in the sun. She understands every word you tell her as if she is a human! You can talk to her and she will understand. She also loves bully sticks!

Our bond with Nyla is like no other. She will lick an area that is giving you pain and she will bring comfort when you are crying. She never lets you suffer alone. It is as if she understands and knows you are not okay and she wants to help. She will even bring you a toy to bring you joy and starting talking to you!

Nyla has been diagnosed to peripheral sheath tumor/soft tissue tumor on her C8. She has been to multiple different appointments for this diagnosis. She’s gotten X-rays at her primary along with blood work, then referred to an orthopedic surgeon, then to a neurologist where they did an MRI and a spinal tap. Now she has been referred to the oncologist where she needs radiation.

I live with my disabled mother and are asking for help because the insurance Nyla has only covers preventative care. I attempted to get her insurance but now her tumor is considered a preexisting condition and will not be covered by insurance.
