Noodle - Blasto Infection Costs

Donation protected
On 5/6/21 - Noodle contracted a deadly fungal infection called Blastomycosis (aka Blasto) from just being outside on his regular walk. We have been in out of the Emergency Vet trying to diagnose, comfort, and save him.  He has stopped eating on his own, can't breathe, has a fever, and now has lameness in his hind legs - this thing is UGLY. The infection has gone from a small quadrant in his right lung, to completely taking over his right lung in the matter of 3 days. He remains stable at the EV but we're trying to buy him enough time to try and fight off the infection. It is not clear what his odds are for surviving - but the vets have told us that the quick progress of the infection in not in his favor.

Noodle came into my life in 2017- he'll be 4 in Sept of 2021. We have lived the bachelorette lifestyle, just a girl and her pup through some of the hardest times of my life. He is a IVDD survivor, overcoming being completely paralyzed from the waist down in 2019. He bring so much joy to everyone who meets him, he has a BIG personality. Last year Noodle literally kept me alive, being my only companion through the darkest times of 2020 and quarantine. He is my life partner, my little baby boy.

I am doing all I can to keep us together, so long as it's what's best for Noodle. Anything donated here will be to help with the emergency vet bills. Nothing about this is easy, the situation, setting up this campaign...it's all very hard. Thank you to all the amazing humans who have helped me get over my own ego to set this up.

I have so much appreciation for you all through this very tough time. I love you Noodle, I'll do everything I can.

I will be transparent about everything because I realize that money is very personal.
