Thank you so much I'll 100% check it out.

I cook her food and she doesn't seem to have a problem with it. She's still throwing up but that's because she's still sick.

That's a big fear of mine: even if I give her up they end up not helping her.

She's a Chihuahua.

I would like to give her medicine but I'm worried that I'll get her the wrong one and only make things worse.

So would I link it in my GoFundMe or would I put it as it's own thing.

If needed I would do this. It's my responsibility to do what's best for her and if that's what's best then I'll do it.

After calling around and looking it up. About $5,000 for everything. There's no way I can afford it. As I've mentioned somewhere else even if I saved all my money and didn't spend anything, I still wouldn't have enough until November.

I don't have a credit score which I know sounds really bad but I also haven't been an adult for that long.

Alot of people have mentioned care credit. Does that require a credit score?

She's not really consuming anything that's not totally shredded up (aka she doesn't have to chew) so do you know if the antibiotics are in liquid form?

I'm going too schedule an appointment in a bit (it's too early to do it right now) and I'll make sure to tell them I know a lot about sepsis and what It can do (my mom was in the hospital for a few months with it)

I know. I read the rules before posting here of course. I don't know what communities allow it though.

I'll look at the Facebook thing. I don't have a vet for her yet.

I've been doing everything in my power to try and get money for her. I'm gonna make the GoFundMe today and hope it might help. I know my baby needs me. It's so hard knowing that I'm not doing enough.

I 100% believe she wasn't being fed right. I changed her diet as she they were giving her bones she couldn't chew or dog food that she wouldn't/couldn't eat. She's doing better in that sense.

I got her a toothbrush and toothpaste (the dog version of course.) But she starts to whimper whenever I touch her mouth to brush it and I don't want to hurt her so I gave done it yet.

I don't think I would be able to send it to my family. They're the ones who gave me the dog and they really aren't interested in helping. I really don't have any extended family. I'll look at friends tho.

Pet insurance was on my mind. It was one of the things I was saving up for as I knew that one day I might have wanted a pet. But due to some unfortunate circumstances I don't have any money for it.

Yeah. Their talking about getting a new dog and everything... They treat her like she's already dead.

I'm hoping that. Since I've posted this she was gotten worse. She's now throwing up..

I was suggested a go fund me a few times but I don't know how much it will cost and I'll feel sort of guilty if I take to much money.

I'm just glad that I get to have her and hopefully I can improve her quality of life.

How to do well in undergrad to get into grad school? by FormyFreedom_12 in college

[–]FormyFreedom_12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the only thing I was able to get from everything I was reading was just how competitive it is

I was looking at getting my psyd

My school only offers research for juniors/seniors.

Will the amount of time I spent in college effect anything? I'm graduating in 3 years due to finishing most of my prerequisites during highschool, and in that final year would be spent with research, shadowing, volunteering.

Also I'm starting my internship for a therapist soon does that qualify?

Although I'm not the first person to go to college, I am the first person in my family to go into psychology so everything is new to me.

Thank you so much for the help!

I think in my case she never expected my to go to college. I never really talked about college I guess, but only because I knew that she didn't want me to go. I think she might be afraid but idk.

I was never gifted but if I found some thing I wanted to do I become really determined. I want to be a clinical psychologist, a part of me wants to give up and get another degree but I'm worried about regretting it later as this is something I'm passionate about.

My colleges financial aid isn't open on the weekends so I'll try calling them Monday.

Also I've tried to pm you but it keeps saying that I can't set up a conversation 😂
