Aid for a Mom's Recovery and Essential Supplies

Donation protected
Hello Everyone!

On November 3, 2025, I suffered a severe crush injury. I have been in and out of the hospital all month, along with a 10-day stay for surgery and treatment. My compacted hematoma turned into a flesh-eating bacteria that got into my blood. I had a private practice, Infectious Disease Specialists, oversee me in St. Frances Hospital. I am lucky to be alive and have my leg. I have a recovery time of 10-12 months. I feel okay most days but have mobility issues as there is a huge wound in my leg.

I have been a reseller upon moving to Colorado Springs almost 8 years ago. Being on the go from morning after dropping kids to sometimes late at night is what I am used to. I have taken an immediate hit financially. I am unable to generate any money right now for basic needs. I do have help paying bills, which is a lot, but asking for essential needs is huge also. For example, Lysol spray aerosol and concentrate cleaner, Kleenex, waterproof covers for my leg, soaps—things of that nature and fuel. I don't have anything for the kids for Christmas. Things like this are super stressful as a mom not being able to provide day-to-day needs.

This is embarrassing to ask for help for this. But that's what it is. If you want to make an order yourself from wherever, I am good with that. I just need help. I have several methods of money transfer platforms, and if you decide to help with a donation through here, it will be going to my daughter's account, Wells Fargo... Zelle. Any help is much appreciated.

My home address is 4709 Misty Drive
Colorado Springs, CO 80918

I have an Amazon account. I do not have a method of help preference.
It is for essential day-to-day needs of recovering at home. If you want a list, feel free to ask. I
