Raise Money For A Dream Job!

Donation protected
Hello my name is Shawn Lonkert currenty living on disabilty. Without it I would probably be dead right now. When I was 17 Years old I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. It had a bad effect on me playing hockey and obviously working as well. As the years went on I have struggled to work due to my UC and eventually had to go on disabilty. I am now 38 years old and still not working. I had to have my entire colon removed in 2013 because it got so bad. The surgery had to be done in 3 stages. 1st. Remove my colon. 2nd Remove my rectum and create what they call a J Pouch so i would not have to wear a bag anymore. 3rd was my takedown and connection of the JPouch. Since the surgerys I have been in an out of the hospital with blockages, Pouchitis and many other complications. I am a man and I need to work. It would be a dream of mine to run a Podcast and who knows, it could eventually turn into a paying job. I am not going to complain about SSI as it is money and i get all my scripts. But between that and my wife working at a local store we live pay to pay and are unable to afford a podcast at this time. With your help I could keep my websiteThe proper equipment for the podcast and advertisement is very expensive!! Also, just to do all the things that are needed to be done to make a proper Podcast need investments. I am asking you from the bottom of my heart to donate atleast $5.00. It would help me out both mentally and as a man! Oh and it would help my wife out in more ways then you know! Thank You!!! Shawn
