My dear friend Kate created a Go Fund Me site for medical expenses associated with the dog mauling last Monday. If you would like to donate $10 here is a link. gofund.me/a17a0270 I have been blown away by all your support. It has most certainly kept me in good spirits. 😊

Please be on the look out for this van, probably in SE #Portland. The dog that mauled both me and another dog is living in it. Call animal services if found. 503-988-7387 And if you would like to donate $10, my dear friend Kate set up a Go Fund Me. gofundme.com/f/please-donat…
