Ginger is a 7 year old Mix-Breed in Green Valley, AZ, who needs $4,046 for MRI for Diagnosis.

Ginger came into my life when she was a young pup approx. 6 months old. She and many other animals were up for adoption due to a devastating wildfire that literally burned down the whole town of Paradise, CA. She was in a small crate and could barely move. I immediately fell in love with her and took her home with me that day.

Ginger has been a healthy dog all these years until 6 months ago she had an accident involving a car & ended up with a lower back spinal fracture. We thought she had recovered from the injury, but 3 weeks ago she developed right back leg limp. After going to her primary veterinarian, whom referred us to an orthopedic specialist, whom in turn referred us to a neurologist, Dr. Berkell in Tucson AZ.

Dr. Berkell believes Ginger may have a disc injury related to the previous spinal fx 6 mo. earlier. Dr cannot tell unless Ginger has an MRI, costing $2922.00 - $4046.00. Wow! A bit pricey, but I love my dog & will do anything possible for her. We. Go on hikes every day and play in the water together. She sleeps in bed with me, but can’t climb up on either the bed or couch right now.

I am a retired single lady barely getting by on social security and a small pension. My credit cards are maxed out and I don’t know what else to do but ask for help. Ginger means so much to me, it would break my heart if I didn’t have her with me anymore. Please help us.
