Help Meiya get Abdominal Ultrasound/Bile Test — Ocala, FL

Meet Meiya — but everyone calls her Meme 🫶🏽

She’s my retired helper dog, but she definitely didn’t get that memo! After my paralysis, she’d use her weight to stop my muscle spasms. Now she thinks her full time job is putting her full body weight into everyone she loves, she’s a big ham.

She’s been my girl since she was 7w and completely changed my life in ways I can’t explain.

Meme has been experiencing ongoing GI issues and weight loss. She has struggled to eat enough despite dietary changes, hand-feeding, medications, and veterinary care. She has been treated for C. diff and continues to have unexplained symptoms. Recent testing at UF found abdominal fluid, but we still don’t have a diagnosis. Further testing is needed to determine the cause and treatment.

She’s my right hand, she’s taken care of me in ways I cannot put into words. She saved me in a time I didn’t think I could be saved and has done that every day since. She’s a lover, she really is a baby, so gentle. She must always be touching you, holding your hand with her paw, putting her weight into you.. Letting you know you are not alone.

I am on disability, so income is limited. I’ve already spent around $1500, and who knows the direction of care we are headed. She deserves the world, and I will do everything in my power to give her that.
