to my former clients, my friends, my followers:
i had to retire from dog grooming in october 2025. it broke my heart. dog grooming was my dream job. unfortunately, my pain and health issues got too severe in order to continue dog grooming.
yesterday, i started my first round of chemotherapy infusions. i will be doing these infusions every 21 days for the foreseeable future. but it’s okay! i have the most amazing support system ever to help get my through it.
my wonderful amazing beautiful friend becky has asked me to write up a wishlist of things i want that may help make chemotherapy a bit easier to deal with, emotionally especially. on this list are gift card (including virtual gift cards), my venmo and paypal (please nothing over $100 i DO NOT want people doing too much or more than they can afford), books (i will bring a book with my to each appointment and i’m always reading at home too), and more.
if you are interested, please do not feel obligated or pressured, feel free to message me for the wishlist information.
i miss seeing my clients and their pups every single day. i still think of them all fondly and and forever grateful of you guys trusting me with your dogs.
love always,
keira 🐩
