Post Script

Hey everyone! I just wanted to pop on here and say a huge THANK YOU to every single person who donated, shared, and supported my fundraiser.

We hit $4,000! I’m honestly blown away by the kindness and generosity you’ve shown me. This all goes towards the transition fee of the dog which is $5,000. Every thing raised after that will be put into an emergency fund for the service dogs health and well being.

Because of you, I’m one big step closer to starting handler training with my service dog. I’ll be sharing updates soon about the dog, the training, and this next chapter, if you want to follow my journey, please follow me on and

Seriously… thank you from the bottom of my heart. You’re helping me change my life.

P.S. Sharing goes a long way.

From Shane,

I never thought I would be here asking for help.

This past year has been one of the hardest of my life.
In November 2023, I had my first serious Meniere’s Disease attack. Since then, I’ve had more than a dozen major episodes that leave the world spinning, my hearing fading, and my balance gone. I use a walker now when I’m outside because the fall risk is real.

It hasn’t been easy to accept, but over the past year I’ve been doing the work—mentally, emotionally, spiritually—to rebuild my life. I’m learning how to live with this condition instead of letting it control me.

Now I’m ready for the next step. I’ve been accepted into , an amazing nonprofit that’s matching me with a service dog to help me stay balanced, safe, and independent. But before we can start working together, I need to go through specialized handler training.

I’ve started a GoFundMe to help make it happen. If you can donate or share, it would mean more than I can say. Every bit of support brings me closer to walking forward with a loyal partner by my side.
