In Memory of Joyce: Vet Bill Relief Fund

Update: Joyce lost her life to respiratory distress on 11/15/24 and the pain our family is feeling is indescribable. We can’t erase the pain, but with the help of family and friends, we can offset some of the $14,000 it took to help Joyce fight to the end.

We need to save our dog, Joyce, but our family can't do it alone. She is currently at the veterinary hospital in critical condition, fighting for her life from a ruptured mass that left her bleeding internally. The vet bills are piling up. Please help us to help her survive.

Joyce is a 9-pound rescued chihuahua mix that was brought into our family in 2017 by my sister, Emily. She is fiercely loyal and easily recognized by her signature doggy "smile." She is Emily's irreplaceable fur baby and best friend.

In 2023, at 25 years old, Emily was diagnosed with an osteoblastoma and had two surgeries to remove the tumor and repair her left leg. Joyce never left her side as she relearned to walk. Emily is still undergoing physical therapy, and Joyce patiently waits for her to return home every day.

From the bottom of our hearts, we ask that you aid us in healing the loving pet that helped heal my sister. We don't know what we will do if she's not here with us.
