Crystal White's Emergency Surgery

Donation protected
Hello everyone. I come to you with a very serious request.
As you all know, I've been a professional wrestler since 1999 and over the last couple years my passion has grown into fitness. I've made it a point to make a huge part of my life outside of the ring, posting pics and videos, and even food and recipes of what I create to supplement my training, and keep my body in tip-top shape.
A couple of years ago I moved out of my hometown of Chicago to Tampa to further my wrestling career and and possibly start my other venture into personal training,  fitness competitions, and modeling. Unfortunately, after almost 2 years in a different city far from home by myself, things got a bit overwhelming, and I was forced to move back to Illinois (essentially with my tail between my legs) to regroup and get back on my feet. My spirit wasn't too crushed as I figured this setback would be what I need to get my head right, continue my workouts, and prepare for back in the ring at a bigger capacity for my 20th year.
Unfortunately, on September 7th, I woke up to something I never thought would happen. I noticed some slight pain but since I workout a lot it didn't seem as serious as it was. I was very wrong. A rupture in one of my implants after roughly 17 years. I look in the mirror and I was beyond mortified! Immediately, I looked into my options and obviously revision surgery was the only option.
As you could imagine my life all but stopped... my training, most definitely wrestling, and for the most part, for lack of being super dramatic, life. When your body is your business and you do what you can to keep it in shape you can imagine what a huge blow to one's self esteem an injury such as this would be. Not to mention not safe or recommended to leave unaddressed for long.
Since moving back home I've been saving my money so I'll be in a better position to get back on my feet and continue my training and being able to assist others in their fitness goals. But this unexpected incident has forced me to use all of my savings to repair myself in a timely fashion so I can heal and be back to myself. Though I'm able to move around, I haven't been able to workout as to not exacerbate the situation and my confidence has been greatly diminished. I put on a brave face but best believe on the inside I'm beside myself with fear and anguish.
So it is now that I come to you all after much deliberation to ask for help with these unexpected expenses to help me get back on my feet and get back to doing what I love and I throw myself upon your tender mercies for your support, and with the urging of a few close friends I decided to turn to Gofundme. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Every little bit helps!
