Woman Seeks Advice On How To Deal With Family Members Who Say 'Why Waste So Much Money, It’s Just A Dog'

The dearest original poster of this thread recently discovered that her doggo is suffering from skin cancer, and requires a pricey operation that she and her partner are working together to finance. Now for the stickier aspect of this situation, her family members whom she has occasionally given financial assistance to, say hurtful things regarding the money that will be spent on the dog's operation.

We think it's pretty easy to pick up the clear implication that OP's family members think that her financial assets should be distributed a little differently, as in less to the dog and more to them, but that's not their decision nor their right. We gathered together on Reddit to read the various pieces of advice that users from all over the interwebs had to give.

First of all, we can only imagine how stressful this situation must be. Health scares are called that for a reason, they're scary. And when this happens people need as much support as they can get, not unsupportive and blatantly rude family members.

The jealousy here is oozing. How about you guys stop relying on OP's kindness and get your financial situation together. Sometimes you've got to put on your big girl pants and get sh*t done.
