Help a Disabled Person and Their Dog Survive Winter

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Amanda, and I am reaching out for help during an incredibly difficult time in my life. I am a disabled woman living with my beloved dog, Roscoe, who has been my constant companion for the past 14 years. Unfortunately, my circumstances have recently taken a turn for the worse, and I am struggling to keep up with basic expenses.

**My dog, Roscoe, needs monthly prescription food and medications totaling $400.** As a senior dog, his health is my top priority, and I am doing everything I can to ensure his comfort and well-being. However, my financial situation has become overwhelming, and I’m unable to cover all of our living expenses on my own.

To make matters worse, my ex left me unexpectedly due to my health conditions, leaving me not only heartbroken but also without financial support. I am now responsible for **covering $10,000 in critical expenses** that include:
- **Lot rent for over the winter**
- **My dog’s monthly prescriptions and food**
- **Urgent repairs to my home**, including:
- Mold removal
- Fixing a leaking roof
- Repairing rotting wood and dangerous holes in the floor that pose a safety hazard, and squirrels have been getting into my home due to the holes.

As a disabled woman on a fixed income, I don’t have the means to cover these urgent expenses. I am deeply worried about how I will continue to care for both myself and Roscoe, and I am at risk of losing my home if I cannot make these necessary repairs.

I am reaching out to the community for help. **Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a huge difference** and bring me one step closer to securing a safe home for myself and my dog. I am forever grateful for any support you can offer, and I will continue to update this page with our progress.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my story, and for any kindness you can extend during this challenging time.

**Please consider sharing this campaign if you are unable to donate. Every bit of support helps!**

With gratitude,
Amanda
& Roscoe. ♡
