Tofu needs your help!
Hi! For those of you who may not know me, my name is Brianna & this is my emotional support animal, Tofu. She means the world to me and I wouldn’t be able to get through day to day without her.
A few weeks ago Tofu was rushed to the ER with what they thought was her eating rat poison. She was vomiting a blue/green liquid, had bloody diarrhea, and couldn’t stand up straight. She kept falling overand couldn’t walk. After several tests, they couldn’t find anything wrong besides the potential for rat poison (even though her coagulation tests were seemingly normal). She was sent home with some medications and we monitored her. Within a week she was back to her normal self.
This morning I woke upto her falling off the bed and panicking / falling all over the house. She could not stand straight at all and couldn’t catch her footing, and was falling over. Shortly aftershe started having seizures. They happened roughly every 15-20 minutes for about 2 hours. We then rushed her to a specialty hospital for a neurological exam & to make sure her vitals were stable.
When we got to the hospital, her heart rate was very high- at 240bpm. They ran allthe usual tests (blood work, urinalysis, ekg, etc.) which all came back fine. They brought in a neurologist to check her out, who told us it might be an inner ear issue or inflammatory brain disease.
As of right now she is stable, but that can change at any point & if the seizures they’d like to do an MRI (which cost anywhere from $3600-4600 alone), to really get abetter idea of what’s going on.
While I’ve still been lucky enough to work during this pandemic, my clientele (I’m a food blogger) has slowed down a bit because of it so I haven’t had as much income. Between all her vet bills & this possible MRI, any help is INCREDIBLY appreciated. Like I said, this dog literally saves my life on a daily basis and I don’t know whatI’d do without her.
The first vet visit a few weeks ago cost $1360, so far today is $600, and then the MRI will cost at most $4600. Anything helps, even if you’re just able to share this go fund me.
Tofu & I both thank you from the bottom of our hearts for reading this, sharing, donating, etc. I will continuously post updates as I receive them, but I just need this little baby to be okay!
Thank you all again
