<div>Hello,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Paloma and I moved to the Netherlands for work.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For health reasons, I travelled with my dog Xué (certified as an emotional support animal) and my cat Tomás.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Unfortunately, I lost my job a year ago. Since then, I have done everything I can to keep a roof over our heads: I worked temporary jobs, learned Dutch, and worked tirelessly applying for new sponsored positions. But my work visa has now expired, and I wasn’t able to find a new employer in time to sponsor me. Now, my family and I need to leave the Netherlands, and legally I can no longer work to earn what we need.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It seems that when things fall apart, they often do so all at once. In our final month of residence, while we were still hoping for a positive result from a job application that, sadly, didn’t work out, Xué was diagnosed with leukemia. I immediately took care of her with the resources I had — paying for diagnostic exams, oncology appointments, and treatment. While I was employed until September, I managed to cover the expenses. But now, with my visa expired, I fear I won’t be able to afford her chemotherapy treatment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are now preparing to leave the Netherlands, selling our belongings to raise funds, but it’s a lot to try to cover for moving costs, transportation, and medical treatment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you can lend us a hand, you’ll help us get home safely .
</div>
<div><br />
</div>

</div>
<div>Use of Funds
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your help will go toward:
</div>
<div>• Moving costs.
</div>
<div>• Xué’s oncology treatment (chemotherapy and veterinary follow-ups).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us closer to home.
</div>
<div>If you can’t donate, sharing our story also helps enormously.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are doing everything we can to cover expenses — we just need a hand to get through this moment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you in advance for your kindness,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Paloma, Xué &amp; Tomás
