#thank y’all for all the love you’ve shown stella 💜

hi y’all.

as many of you know, my baby stella has been going through quite the health journey in the past year, with things really ramping up in the last few months. we’ve reached a bit of a roadblock in her journey — cancer is not off the table, but she isn’t well enough (combined with her age) to pursue the biopsy needed to confirm or deny that diagnosis. in the meantime, we’re shifting towards a tentative chronic pancreatitis diagnosis and treating it as such, hoping her next round of bloodwork in a few weeks might shine a bit more light on things.

we’re happy to try anything at this point, but these treatments (and the bills up to this point — it’s been over 1000 in the last month alone) are really starting to weigh on us financially as we settle into twice a week vet visits. my husband works full time, but i’m limited to part time work because of my own poor health. it’s hard for me to ask, and i certainly don’t want to pressure anyone as i know times are hard, but i’m going to link my ko-fi in case anyone wants to donate to the “keep stella’s motor running” fund. if you can’t spare anything, love and prayers are also appreciated. 💜
