I was diagnosed with extreme and debilitating anxiety when I was nine years old. As I’ve gotten older, my anxiety has only gotten worse, making it harder for me to do even simple things. On top of that, I was diagnosed with POTS around age twelve, which poses an extreme safety risk for me. I deal with constant lightheadedness and occasional fainting spells, and I also have chronic migraines. These conditions make daily life challenging and sometimes even dangerous.

A service dog can help alert me to ongoing episodes for all of these conditions and assist me in doing basic things, so I can enjoy my life to the fullest. All the money raised will go toward the nonprofit’s training, housing, and vet visits for my service dog. The funds will make it possible for me to obtain the service dog I need, who will help keep me safe and give me more independence.

This service dog is my last resort and really the only thing giving me hope to move forward. Any donation is appreciated—even donations others would consider small. Everything means the world to me. Thank you so much for considering donating or actually donating. You are the reason I am able to get the service dog I need. I love all of you.
