If I ever won $1 million. I would either set up a fund to help low income people get emergency veterinary care for their pets or I would open my own animal shelter. I know what it feels like to have a sick/dying animal and either be turned away by the vet for being unable to pay or have to go into debt to get them the help that they need, only to be bled dry with promises that your pet will get better only to have to watch them die anyway. It has happened to me three times! I hate that people and their animals have to go through this. It makes me so angry, that someone who knows how to and is supposed to help is willing to just let them die over a lack of money. It's disgusting! The same thing with health insurance, people are dying because they don't have the right health insurance or any at all and no money to pay for their health care. I think it's outrageous that these things occur and if I had the money, I would do everything I could to help people in this situation save their beloved pets.
