Help Allen obtain a Diabetic Alert Dog

Donation protected
Hello everyone! My name is Allen Poe I am asking for your help to obtain a diabetic alert dog for myself  that would be a tremendous help to me keeping from going into a diabetic coma or ketosis. I have had type 1 diabetes for 25 years now and have to say it is a difficult and draining road to travel but I thank the Lord Jesus I am here today. I have in the last 2 yrs been fighting another medical condition. Lung cancer.I have had chemo and radiation during the process and at this point am dealing with renal cancer. While these things have happened my diabetes has turned and has been much more difficult to control.Glucose monitoring is being used but it is not full proof.Have had extreme highs and lows.These dogs pick up on the chemical changes before the machine does and alerts you of it. Very important when you are asleep.This animal would pretty much remain by my side 24/7. I am not one to ask for help but this is a pricey endeavor to take on but very necessary. Haven't really had any luck getting help through organizations so buying is what is gonna have to be done. It takes $500 to start the process and then In 2 to  3 months  before the training starts $2,500 has to be paid. The remainder of the $18,000 will have to be by monthly payments or paid in full before starting the training. It's a lot but it's a life saver. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Even if you can't do anything thank you for taking time to read a little bit of my life. God bless you!  Allen
