Help Fight Mei Mei's Chronic Kidney Disease
Donation protected
Hi all.
As some of you know, Mei Mei was recently diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease a month ago, November 2020.
Since then, we have been doing treatment and medicine (subQ fluids, antacid, herbal treatments). We have kept her disease low key on social media because I don’t want to raise any alarm nor pity, and I want to continue keeping Mei Mei content fun and lighthearted: sharing Mei Mei’s love and bringing joy to everyone.
That said, even with consistent treatment, her condition has worsened. We’ve taken her to three vet clinics, and we got different opinions. Our family vet even called me cruel for wanting to further diagnose and treat her. Her called me selfish for not putting her down.
But, I have to follow my heart. In my heart, looking into her eyes, I feel that she has so much fight left in her.
Just today, I already see improvement in her. I see fight in her, but if I just do nothing and hope for the best, she will get worse again.
Luckily, there is a specialist vet clinic who wants to fight the disease with us. The problem is, to further diagnose her, it would cost Mei Mei and me $1,000.
I feel crazy for running off hope, but she means the universe to me, and that alone is enough justification. I also feel ashamed to ask her fans for donations, but after further consideration, I thought, why not?
Throughout her 13 years thus far, Mei Mei has given and received so much love, and perhaps that love could be channeled into funding her medical treatments to fight her CKD.
Thus, I’ve set up a GoFundMe as well as a Facebook donate. All amounts will be going towards Mei Mei’s fight against CKD, and any amount helps.
Thank you all so, so much.
I feel so lucky to have Mei Mei and to have you all pour love into her everyday.
I truly hope Mei Mei can continue bringing joy to all of you.
Love,
Mei Mei and Vivian
