Therapy Animal in need

Donation protected


First I'd like to explain a few things. I have struggled with Bi-Polar, severe depression, Panic attacks and PTSD my whole life. I was stuck in a really violent relationship for almost 10 years full of domestic violence. I suffered a severe head and eye injury due to domestic violence that left me with bad migraines and he blinded me in my left eye. There's more to tell but I won't go to far into it. Anyways, I've gone through every kind of therapy you could think of, my doctors have put me on so many different medications that only end up having horrible side effects and still nothing has helped me. 



Then one day I was sitting on my porch having a horrible panic attack and out of nowhere it seemed a tiny little rabbit was hopping around my yard. She came right up to me like she knew I needed the comfort. I don't know where she came from but it was like a gift from God. So I took her in and she became my "medication" and my "therapy". I'm sure it's hard for some people to understand the bond a person like me can have with an animal, a rabbit. It's like she knows when I'm having a bad day or a panic attack. She brings me so much joy, comfort and peace. She is like my best friend. She saved my life over and over and all I wish to do is the same in return.




Throughout this summer she started losing weight here and there and I thought it was due to the heat but she lives indoors all the time. She would still eat and drink like normal until the past couple days. She's down to skin and bones. The vet said that she thinks it's probably cancer but she won't know for sure until she runs expensive tests that I can't afford at this time. Plus the vet said that if it is cancer then she'll have to get a full Hysterectomy, plus medications and at home after care. 

Right now I'm living off Disability while raising my 5 year old son and things have been very tight. I don't like asking for help because I know I should've had her fixed right away or put money aside for Vet emergencies. I feel horrible. She's part of my family and I just can't let her suffer. 

My son is also so attached to her. They are like siblings. She's 6 years old and my son is 5 years old. She likes to wake my son up early in the mornings by climbing all over him. She makes him laugh and smile every time he sees her. She's a HUGE part of our family and we all would feel terrible loss if we lose her. I can't even start to imagine how I'll cope with the loss of her. 




The Vet clinic said that I need to get her in for testing and possibly surgery as soon as possible before the cancer has a chance to spread. They said she's at a deadly weight. I didn't even understand how urgent it was until I talked with other rabbit owners and the Vet. Like I said, I know this is all my fault and I should've planned for this but there's nothing I can do about that now accept PLEAD for generosity. I can't just let her suffer. She's my best friend and I'll do ANYTHING at this point including begging for help to save her life.

PLEASE friends, family and other bunny owners help me to save her life. She's not just a rabbit, she's my service-therapy pet. She brings so much peace and comfort to me when I'm not doing okay. Please please. She doesn't deserve to suffer for my mistakes. Anything will help. If you don't want to just donate money, maybe you could just send it straight to the Vet clinic? We as a family will appreciate everything. 

Thank you so much for your time, generosity and for reading this. I hope you all have a blessed day. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
