This is Francisco. He's an 8-year-old Pitbull that's my whole world. He is my ESA that has helped me through depression, anxiety, and PTSD by being the reason to get out of bed on my worst days. He has now had two strokes and is in need of an MRI and a spinal tap to confirm where, and what kind of strokes he has had, to be able to treat him to prevent further strokes and possibly death. The MRI, spinal tap testing, and accompanying anesthesia/IV is $4001 total. I'm working two jobs to make ends meet and am looking for any help to get him the care he needs.

Notes from my Vet and Neurologist on what's happening medically:

Francisco was presented to the Veterinary Neurological Center for evaluation of abnormal gait. Francisco had an episode of abnormal eye movement. A review of a video showed Francisco having convergence retraction nystagmus. Francisco then acutely started to knuckle in the right thoracic limb and circle to the left. Francisco has trouble standing and had his limbs giving out while walking and trying to stand.
