My Appeal
The challenges of being a veterinary professional are real and have taken a toll on my colleagues. High debt:income ratios, compassion fatigue, long hours, often unreachable client expectations, nearly daily patient death scenarios and access to lethal drug have all lead to a suicide rate of over 3x the national average. You would be hard pressed to find a veterinarian who hasn't suffered from these obstacles and we all know one or more colleagues and friends who have succumb to these pressures paying the ultimate price. The Not One More Vet initiative strives to shed light on the causes of veterinary suicide and promote support for those with the most need. We are fundraising to support this group with a "race around the world". I will be riding >1000miles over the next two months in solidarity with my colleagues. Please join me and donate to our cause.
