Hi, my name is Sheila.

I am a wife and a mother of 2 and 4 fur babies

Since I was a young child, I have had Degenerative Disk Disease. I didn't have too many problems with it growing up, but when I turned 23, everything changed. I was a full-time groomer. I love animals, I loved my job, all my life up until my accident was focused on learning health behavior and welfare of our furry loved ones.

Then the accident happened. While grooming a large dog, I fell into the tub, folding in half in a way you shouldn't be able to fold, and I couldn't stand up. The pain was excruciating.

In 2009, I received my first of 5 back surgeries and so it began my never-ending cycle of feeling better, then something would go numb and I'd have to go for surgery. This has caused a lot of heartache and grief, to say the least.

Now, I'm trying, even being disabled, to work to try to get rid of some of my debt but it looks like I'm in for another surgery this fall so I will be trying to pay everything with very limited income again. All donations will be used to pay monthly bills and medical expenses. So, if you can help me and my family, it would be greatly appreciated
