ANew Life for my Aunt Nicole

Donation protected
My intention for creating this “Go Fund Me” is to raise money for my Aunt Nicole to receive a miraculous healing. She has been battling drug addiction on and off her whole life. My Aunt Nicole started using at the age of 13 and eventually got clean at the age of 30. She stayed abstinent for 12 years. However, she never did any inner work on herself to heal fully. When an addict gets clean and stays stagnant, nothing changes. This situation is why follow up treatment and support are so vital for an addict who is just getting clean. I have met many people on my journey who have done Ibogaine to get clean. Most of them have over five years clean presently and never went back to using drugs. My Aunt Nicole has tried just about everything to get clean. This endeavor will be her first time working with plant medicines. As many of you know, the West runs off pharmaceutical companies, and we have gotten further and further away from natural medicine that comes from the earth. I’ve seen so many doctors be quick to put people on Suboxone or Subutex. These prescription medications are trading one problem for another, as they are also highly addictive. A lot of the so-called solutions when “treating” an addict is that they do not treat the underlying problem. Whatever reasons an addict started using drugs in the first place, they will go back once they get clean IF the inside issues do not get addressed.

I’m on my own with raising all the money. My Aunt Nicole is getting out of jail tomorrow and will have a little over two months clean. She feels hopeful willing and ready to work with Iboga. I humbly ask that you share this Fundraiser as well as donate whatever you feel called to give. I thank you in advance for supporting her on her journey to healing. We are eternally grateful for another opportunity at healing her once and for all. Every single dollar counts even if you can only donate $5, $10, $20. I believe in abundance, and when you give, you get tenfold! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

As many of you know, I will be coming up on five years clean this August. There is hope.


I asked my 12 year old cousin to speak into how her mothers addiction has effected her life. Here is what she wrote:

It all started when i was about 8 years old. My mom and my dad both lost their sobriety to drugs. It affected me, and my two siblings very much.  My dad got arrested in a short amount of time, and at the same time we got kicked out of our house. He left us alone with no job or money. We were left to go from hotel to hotel, asking family to lend us money for the night so we had a roof over our head. My aunt and uncle came to kentucky to get us and bring us to florida with them. We ended up moving to flordia from kentucky with no money, leaving my dad there in jail. We had to live with my aunt, in a little condo.  Eventually, we got a place, but not too long into the lease, we had to move ( due to not paying rent). We ended up having to go back to live with my aunt. Me, my mom, my twin brother, and my older sister all had to sleep on the couch every night. It was very hard to get to school because my car kept breaking down each morning, making us tardy and missing out on learning. We almost got held back the last 2 and a half years of school here in florida. We would have the cop of my school come banging on my door almost every week because we would never show up for school. We then got a new condo shortly after. The rent was above our budget, but we had to move here because we had no other choice. Every month was a struggle to pay because my mom wouldn't get a job. She wasn't able to, because even if she did it would be hard to even be there on time. It was the same thing with this school year with tardies and absents..except not only was my school cop coming to the door, the owner of the condo was coming to the door trying to arrest my mom. They would almost break down my door at 3 am when my mom wasn't even home. I felt alone and scared. My siblings weren't up so I was the only one having to listen to them trying to get in my house. They then kicked us out and we were left to stay with her friend and go from hotel to hotel. She then got arrested and left me and my siblings to live with my aunt again..with no contact of her, I was so upset. Now, she's coming out in a few days with no place to stay and no money. Leaving her out on the streets with no money, and leading her to drugs. If she goes back to drugs and is not able to go further treatment, things can go downhill very soon. So, it would be amazing if everyone could let us raise enough money to get her further treatment and be safe. It would mean everything to me and my siblings. it would be awful if we had to go through what we went through already, again.





Here is a little bit about this treatment:
This treatment has been proven extremely effective but currently is not available in the United States which is why we must travel out of  the country to a healing center in the Mayan Riviera. IBOGA is possibly the most powerful plant medicine on Earth for healing addictions and spiritual discovery. IBOGA is used to treat addictions, while detoxifying the mind and body. The underlying pain of addiction is triggered by pain associated with past trauma. Many people experience a life review during an IBOGA journey, which allows them to identify the point in time where trauma began, and release it for good; cleaning the body down to a cellular level and resetting the mind to deprogram limiting belief systems.
The funds will go towards travel, treatment & aftercare.
