Please Help Me Get Urgent Medical Care for Daisy & Echo — My Whole World

Scroll down for more current updates! 

Hi everyone,

This is really hard for me to write. I’ve only ever made a GoFundMe once before — when I lost my parents. I never thought I’d be in a place where I’d need to ask for help like this again, but I’m scared, and I can’t do this alone anymore.

I’m asking for help for Daisy and Echo — The two dogs who have gotten me through every single painful chapter of my life. They are not “just pets.” They are everything to me. My best friends. My family. My safe space. If you know me — or even glance at my social media — you know how much these girls mean to me. They are my life.

What’s Happening

Daisy has been diagnosed with a heart murmur (Grade 3/6) and a mild case of bronchitis caused by her allergies. She needs an echocardiogram ASAP to find out how serious the heart murmur really is, and what comes next. Her next appointment is estimated around $800, and that doesn’t include any long-term medications or future care she may need.

Echo recently, I’ve started noticing signs of pain — I believe there is something going on in her knees or hips. She also has a mass that needs to be removed, and she’s scheduled to have another procedure that can’t wait much longer. Her care is estimated at around $1,600, not including follow-ups or medication that may be lifelong.

I see her limping slightly some days, struggling to get comfortable, and it’s breaking my heart. I can tell there is something bothering her. She’s always been the strong one, and now she needs me more than ever — and I feel helpless not knowing how I can help.

Update 7/18 Daisy is doing well and awaiting testing results. Echo needs her procedure scheduled as soon as possible!

Why This Hurts So Deeply

Daisy came into my life in 2016, right after I lost my childhood dog — and then, just a few weeks later, I lost my mom. Daisy helped me survive that grief when I was barely holding on. She’s been with me through losing my dad, going through foster care, and more moves than I can count. She’s seen all the pain I’ve tried to hide and loved me through it anyway.

Echo came into my life just a little later and started my journey in the sport/working dog world. She’s my heart dog. My shadow. My protector. My everything. She’s been by my side for the hardest moments of my life — losing friends, surviving school, losing my parents, figuring out who I am.. and so much more. Daisy and Echo have grown up with me. They’ve held me together when nothing else could.

They’re not “just dogs.” They are my home. My soulmates. And I’m terrified of what could happen if I can’t get them the care they need in time.

How You Can Help

I’m doing everything I can, but the financial weight of this is too much for me alone.

You can donate DIRECTLY TO THE VET for Echo’s medical needs. This is the absolute best option as GoFundMe takes out $ and charges people donating. 

Kehoe Animal Clinic 321-877-1825

If you can donate anything — truly, even a few dollars — it will go toward:

• Daisy’s heart testing and medications (Daisy is doing well and awaiting diagnosis) 

• Echo’s x-rays, surgery, and pain relief

• Any follow-ups, recovery, and future meds

If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this. Getting the word out helps more than you know.

I just want my girls to be okay. They’ve carried me through everything — I need to carry them through this.
