Throw a Vet Tech a Bone

Hello!

For many years I have worked passionately as a veterinary technician, both in animal rescue and general practice. It was more than a job—it was my identity and purpose in life.

Over the past year, my life has been turned upside down by a sudden and progressive neurological illness. I’ve developed disabling symptoms including severe dizziness, muscle weakness, vertigo, balance issues, and difficulty walking. Once active and independent, I now often rely on a cane or walker just to move around my home. It's been devastating.

I’ve undergone MRIs, specialist visits, and nerve studies, and I’m still awaiting a final diagnosis after a spinal tap. I'm working hard to figure out what’s going on, but in the meantime, I’ve lost my ability to work and support myself. I’m in the process of applying for disability, but as many know, the process is long and uncertain.

Your support would help me stay afloat while I navigate this overwhelming journey—covering essentials like rent, medical bills, transportation to appointments, and basic living costs.

If you can give, I am deeply grateful. If you can share, that helps more than you know. Thank you for reading and for any support.

Love,

Jessi
