Spurgeon is a 11 year old Mix-Breed in Seattle, WA, who needs $4,384 for Diagnostics, High Flow Oxygen Therapy, Hospitalization.

My beloved son, Spurgeon recently experienced a life-threatening medical emergency in which he was barely able to breathe. We rushed him to the BluePearl in Tukwila immediately. He was admitted to the ICU, put into an oxygen unit, put on IV fluids/liquid antibiotics and started on diagnostics. He remained hospitalized for multiple days in the ICU on oxygen under IM DVM Dr. Susan O Mehain's care.

Spugeon started coughing months ago and went through three courses of antibiotics, and diagnostics. On 5/25/26 he almost stopped breathing. He was under the bed with dilated eyes, drooling, pale lips and nose, had lost his bladder and was exhausting his energy trying to breathe. Like his other medical history (urinary blockages, small cell lymphoma +), his visit was complex without resolution.

Spurgie VERY special. His medical history and current state is complex. He is a fashionista yet he is also a trash panda. His tiny body enjoys wearing sweaters, vests, and his Halloween onesie to keep warm. He also likes to eat garbage. His favorite flavor is plastic. He very much enjoys licking his dad's leg hair while he is being brushed with a glove brush. He tries to eat the hair he sheds.

At this time I am not currently able to work. I am temporarily receiving government assistance and on Medicaid. It would mean the world to me to get him through this. We have stuck by his side through urinary blockages (last two pictures), IBD to cancer, and all of the meds.
