Ghost’s send off

Donation protected
My beloved best friend and baby, Ghost, is terminally ill with brain cancer. I’m not one to reach out for help, it took a lot of convincing for me to even do this. I would never ask for financial help from my friends to benefit myself, but this is my family. I know Ghost has brought joy to many of you, maybe even from a distance. What’s most important to me is to send Ghost off into the next world as seamlessly as possible in her own home when her time comes, where she’s most comfortable. I’ve never been able to do this for one of my animals but it just feels right for us in this situation. In the past, our dogs have declined so fast that they had been euthanized in vet offices. I was often the one to be there with them and the experiences have haunted me. Ghost’s regular vet moved away, and her new one is a stranger to me. I want to spend her final moments with a professional who does traveling euthanasia for a living. My dear friend Curt sent his cat Prince off with the same woman I’ve contacted, and he said she was wonderful. I’m also planning on having Ghost cremated, because I can’t imagine moving away from my current house without her. I want her to be with me, around me, forever. These services are not cheap. I understand what I’m asking for may sound selfish. I recently had to make one of the hardest decisions of my life, other than the ones I just talked about. I had to leave my job to save my mental health. I am financially unable to provide Ghost the comfort of leaving her physical world in her own home. While also unable to give myself the comfort of always carrying what’s left of her physical body with me. Whatever you, my friend, named or anonymous, can give to us, would forever be appreciated beyond words can describe.
