Please HELP Kimberly w/ surgeries

Donation protected
Where to begin.. I guess at the beginning. Lemme first take you back to May 2013, when I just KNEW something was wrong with me. Something wasn't right. I'm talking nonstop violent vomiting, along with non stop violent diarrhea - sometimes bloody in nature.. Finally, I went into the hospital and then transferred to another one after they had been stuck scratching their heads about what to do with/for me. Ended up being in the hospital that time for about 2 weeks and discovering that I have Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Nonstop tests, procedures, different medications, infusions - you name it, we tried it. I was finally stable enough to go home and continued the medications and regimen that they felt were best. I stayed "well-ish" for the next year and a half or so.. Then, WHAM! Right outta nowhere, right back to square one. Several different hospitalizations again, and I finally decided to have surgery to remove my colon. Six or so weeks later, I was back at work. In the meantime, the bills started to pile up, especially with my being a single homeowner. And now, in the VERY near (hopefully!! ) future, I will be able to have the second and third surgeries to complete this lengthy process of attempting to have a semi-normal gut and life again. Anything you would be able to donate to assist me with not only the medical bills for multiple surgeries, but also for my household to keep running, before I am able to return to work again - since I will be without pay for a while..
Thanks again to all my friends and family for praying for me, bringing me meals and get-well gifts, and just sending positive vibes my way through this last year! I could not have made it without all of you - I love all of you!!
