I’ve been asked to set up a GoFundMe for Data, and I’m honestly overwhelmed by the kindness people have shown.

I never expected this support, and I’m deeply grateful for anyone who has cared enough to ask how to help.

Recently, Data has been fighting for her life after developing a severe invasive fungal infection deep in her nasal cavities.

What began as mild sneezing turned into months of nosebleeds, congestion, and emergency vet visits. Specialists eventually discovered aggressive fungal disease that was destroying her nasal structures from the inside.

She recently underwent emergency sinus surgery to remove the infection before it reached her eyes or brain. The surgery saved her life, but her recovery isn't over.

Her medical bills are approaching $20,000, and she will still need a follow-up rhinoscopy, along with the possibility of undergoing this surgery again. With this type of infection, dogs often require 2–3 procedures, as it can be extremely aggressive and difficult to eliminate.

If you’d like to read more about it, it’s called Aspergillosis in dogs.

Data has also touched so many others. She has fought through pain no animal should ever endure. I am doing everything I can to protect her, but I am struggling to carry this alone.

If you are able to help, whether by donating or simply sharing her story, it will go directly toward her care and her recovery.

Thank you, sincerely.
