Dear Family and Friends,

As many of you know may know, Crystal had a medical emergency last week which required emergent care, surgery and hospitalization. While Crystal is making great strides towards recovery, her health is still very compromised and she is unable to return to work any time soon.

Crystal has dedicated her entire professional career to veterinary medicine as a highly skilled, experienced veterinary assistant. Crystal's average day is very busy, taking great care of both pets and their people. Her work is extremely physically demanding and it will be some time before she is capable of performing her professional duties.

Your generous donations, whether big or small, are all significant for her road to recovery while she is unable to physically work. Her inability to work will bring extensive financial hardship and therefore we have set up this fund to help cover health insurance deductibles and copays for her ongoing medical needs, rent, utilities, meals and other related expenses. Thank you all for your support in helping Crystal's healing journey.
