So, I'm ashamed to be asking for help. I had gotten hired at a company that does Medicaid payments and put in my two weeks' notice at my other job. Right before I was set to start, the government shutdown happened, and it froze everything. I can't get my old job back, and it's been a month of interviews and rejection. This job could still happen but not until the end of November, and it's been an entire month without pay.

Now, my poor dog Rosie is sick and having seizures, and I'm desperate to be able to afford her medication and still be able to give her a place to live. Any help at all would mean the entire world to us. I'm looking to finish paying rent for October and get November's rent together along with the money for her meds and treatment.
