Hi family and friends!

As most of you know, I have been suffering from a spinal fracture in the last couple months. So far my doctor says it is an nonoperative fracture, but there is a second fracture next to the first one in the same vertebrea that I am getting an orthepedic surgeon to look at this Thursday. With all of the doctor's visits, medications, CT scan, and MRIs, even after insurance, my out of pocket bill is around $10,000. It was shocking to discover, as I financially support myself and I have been out of work for a month. I would greatly appreciate any kind of pocket change you could spare to help me get out of this financial hole so that I can get back on my feet without losing everything I've worked so hard to establish on my own.

Any kind of help is welcome! Even a handful of your penny stash!

Because I have a hard time accepting charity without giving something in return, I am going to make a list of everyone that contributed to my medical fund and send out homemade gifts this Christmas! So, if you choose to contribute to my cause, please include your home address and email address and you'll recieve a dose of my love and appreciation in the mail this holiday season (FYI, I usually go all out on my DIY christmas gifts, so don't expect a jar of cookie mix).

:)

Thanks everyone for your charity and prayers!

Love,
Gracey
