Default Money for Boyfriend

I can spare a bit if it would help not much but I imagine every penny will
help

I nearly fainted when I got the bill, but it was within June's estimate of
800-900 quid. 835.
The invoices are very detailed so I know exactly where the money went, but I
was surprised to find 16.80 for a sterile cap, gown, gloves and mask for the
vet, but I guess they get them as disposable and have to pass the cost on.
I'm not grumbling, because he had wonderful care and he wouldn't be with me
now if I had not implicitly agreed that having a 24/7 practice would cost me
more.
I have a nearer vet, but he has the people skills of an amoeba and passes
his out of hours calls to Chine House anyway.

Please don't send anything, anyone, unless you can easily afford it. His
own account is now depleted to almost zero (kept a bit in to keep it going)
plus quite some of mine but hey, I don't care. I can make loads of meals
for myself from ground beef (Mince)

Actually I thought it might be a thousand pounds, so in some ways I'm glad
it was *only* 835.
