Hello you all know me as the originator of the infamous Wolf-Pounce-Hug-Attack!!! well I find myself in a bit of a bind. As many of you know I went to Florida last month seeing a few of you on my way down and back in Tennessee. Well I got back from the vacation and had to headaches waiting for me. First I had a collection letter for a credit card I haven't had in years, it went to collection a while ago but I could find out which agency had it so I haven't been able to pay it off. I was able to settle with them but it cost me pretty dearly.
Then there was the car. All four breaks had all but gone, one of the wheel bearings was shot, another wheel was bent, and the emergency break cable had seized up and was keeping back rear breaks engaged at all times. I was thankfully able to get a loan from my parents to help me get the car fixed a loan which we are repaying over time.
Here's where it goes from bad to worse. Patty just broke off about a third of one molar and the root may be infected. Here's where the kicker is Patty has an anaphylactic reaction to clove. Why is this a problem you may ask? well here's the answer a lot of products used in dental work are clove based, including: numbing agents, cements, antiseptics, and much much more. Just walking into most dental offices can trigger Patty's reaction, this reaction can kill Patty in about four or five minutes. Patty is going to have to have the tooth pulled, it is the only option since there is little chance of finding a dentist who can do a root canal and a cap with out using something that can kill Patty.
Now you may be asking why I'm posting this here and not on the shoulder. Patty needs to have the extraction done soon and we can't afford it and I want to borrow a little money from my parents as possible, we are already in debt to them for about three thousand. We are begging you to LOAN us some money. Booth Patty and I are getting raises soon, Patty just got hired full time from temp and starts on her employers payroll Monday at a considerable gain in pay, I myself have just gotten a big ass raise now that my contract has been settled. We will be able to pay you back over a few month period depending on how many people donate to us.
I have donated money to our fellow furs when I could and I'm just asking for a small loan which I'll keep track of and make sure I pay back. I consider you all my friends and I just hope you can give me a hand up. If can lend me some money please send me a PM _________________ Bad moods are like hangovers, they eventually go away. - A.

Holy cow, Sigurd!
Any idea how much the extraction is going to cost? Do you guys have insurance? _________________ Styx: "Oh sure like flaming a dragon going to do massive damage, brave challenge there Teric." |

We have insurance but we aren't sure exactly how much it's going to cover. _________________ Bad moods are like hangovers, they eventually go away. - A. Sigurd Olson |

Patty here.
I just came from the dentist (a really nice one. I didn't know that they existed) and she told me that the tooth is worth saving. I am being sent to a specialist to do a root canal and possible crown. The insurance will cover 50 to 80 percent of the bill. The total cost, unless there has to be a crown, will be $1000. The specialist that I have to see expects the amount that the insurance doesn't cover upfront. No payment plan. So we were wondering if we could pull a LOAN from people and we will pay it back. We would really appreciate the help. I am getting the work done on Monday, July 28. We can pull a loan from Sigurd's parents, but we have already borrowed too much from the for the car that we are trying to avoid getting more money. Please, if you can help we would really appreciate it. _________________ Bad moods are like hangovers, they eventually go away. - A. Sigurd Olson |
