Vision for Duncan: Helping My Hero See Again

If you know me, you know Duncan. He isn’t just a service dog; he’s my shadow, my protector, and my absolute heart dog. Whether he’s helping me navigate life with Multiple Sclerosis or acting as a literal lifesaver by detecting food allergens, Duncan is the reason I can move through the world with confidence.

Where I go, he goes. But lately, his world has been getting darker.

The Challenge

At Duncan’s recent annual check-up, we received some heartbreaking news: he has developed cataracts.

At just 6 years old, Duncan is in the prime of his life, but his spatial awareness is fading. It’s devastating to watch a dog who spends his life looking out for me start to struggle with his own surroundings. He’s begun running into things, losing that sharp, confident spark that makes him such an incredible partner.

I Know Exactly How He Feels

There’s a irony here—I just had my own cataracts removed. I know firsthand the fog, the confusion, and the frustration of losing your vision. I also know the incredible relief of seeing the world clearly again.

Duncan deserves that same second chance. He has spent years being my eyes and my support; now, it’s my turn to be there for him.

How You Can Help

Duncan is too young to spend the rest of his life in a blur. We are raising funds to cover the cost of his cataract surgery to restore his quality of life to 100%.

The Goal: $5,000
The Impact: Every dollar goes directly toward his specialized veterinary surgery, anesthesia, and post-op care.

Donate & Share

Whether it’s $5 or $50, every bit helps bring the world back into focus for Duncan. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing our story. He’s spent his life taking care of me—now, I’m asking for your help to take care of him. Let’s get Duncan back to his happy, confident self!
