Help me keep a roof over my family's head.

Hello there, I'm Kieran, also known as "Bandages" on Twitch and X, a V-Tubing (not so) extraordinaire! I'm reaching out to you for your support during a severely challenging time in my life.

For the past two years, I've been grappling with severe coronary heart disease, stemming from several long-term bouts of COVID-19. This has taken a significant toll on my health and well-being, rendering me unable to work. Compounding this, I've been shouldering the financial burden of medical expenses not only for myself but also for my family members who are unwell and require not only my care but professional and private care. Adding to this immense personal crisis, I've also experienced the loss of one of my dearest real life, face to face friends to suicide. Whilst it has got me to the point my shoulders are buckling with the stress of it all, I am committed to fighting through it all.

The weight of trying to make ends meet, keeping the lights on, and ensuring that everyone is fed has however sincerely and sorely taken its toll.

Recently, I experienced a cardiac arrest, but I'm determined not to let it keep me from getting back to work and pursuing a sense of normalcy. However, the financial strain has become overwhelming, and I've reached a point where there's nothing left. I'm now living hand to mouth, unable to pay bare minimum rent with an accumulated debt of approximately £5000 as a result of trying to sustain us through this difficult two years. I realize that is a massive sum and I am not hoping some miracle will befall me and the entire debt disappears. All I seek is some support to bridge me until life normalizes. I am a totally open card about this, I would not ask for aid if I were not serious so I will be posting screenshots of my bank accounts below.

Your support means the world to me. Any assistance you can provide will be a lifeline for my family and me. It will enable me to provide food for my parents, myself, and keep the lights on in our home. It will allow me to continue the fight against my illness and work towards regaining some semblance of normalcy.

I am profoundly grateful for any help you can offer, whether it's a donation or simply sharing this fundraiser within your network. Your support will make a tangible difference in our lives and bring us one step closer to a brighter, healthier future.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for even just reading this. I can't emphasize enough how much it matters to me that you'd even spare a glance.

UPDATE: Apologies for the relative silence on this GoFundMe, I was recently hospitalized again with sepsis of the chest. I was unable to breathe and my heart was beating like a jackhammer so I was out of reach for a while. I am home again and relatively bedbound but still alive!
