For the past 14 years, Leiah has been my best friend, my family, and my source of comfort through everything. She’s been by my side through so many seasons of life — always loyal, always loving, and always there when I needed her most. My favorite girl.

Leiah is now an older girl, and as much as it breaks my heart to say it, I know her time is coming soon. I want to make sure that when that moment arrives, I can honor her in the most peaceful and loving way possible.

I’m raising money to help cover the cost of her cremation, which is about $400. Giving her the best urn that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. It’s something I wish I didn’t have to prepare for, but I want her to rest with love. She deserves the best.

If you’re able to help, even in a small way, it would mean the world to me. Your support will help give Leiah the goodbye she deserves, and help me find some peace in knowing I did right by her.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to read this and for caring about Leiah’s story.
