I AM DIŞ. I AM VERY SICK… PLEASE GIVE ME A CHANCE.
Hello, my name is Diş.
I am about 8–9 years old, and I have been living here at our living area for 7 years. My mom loves me very much, and I love her too. They have taken such good care of me all these years.
I love people. I am a very friendly girl, and I am also cross-eyed. Whenever someone came to visit and show me some love, I would run to them and jump all over them just to be petted. And when I smiled, I would show all my teeth. That’s how my mom gave me the name “Diş,” which means “tooth” in Turkish.
But now, I am sick.
A few days ago, before starting more comprehensive tests, the vets asked for an X-ray. The X-ray revealed that I have multiple bullet fragments in my body. It turns out that I had already suffered terrible pain before I ever came to my mom. I was probably shot…
We only discovered this 7 years later, because of the X-ray.
Now, there is a mass in my abdomen, and there is also a mass on my tongue. First, we need to find out whether the disease has spread to any other parts of my body.
For this, I need to travel to another city for an examination, X-rays, a complete blood count, biochemistry, and the advanced imaging tests that may be necessary. The total estimated cost of all these initial tests is around $600.
If the disease has not spread to my internal organs, I may still have a chance to have surgery. If that happens, we will need your support again for the second stage of my treatment.
My mom wants to do everything she possibly can for me. I am not ready to give up yet.
Please support us with the cost of my first-stage tests. Maybe, together, we can give me another chance.
I am Diş. I have been with you for seven years.
Will you stand by me now, too?
