In February my boyfriend and I at the time were in a car accident. I was knocked unconscious on site and upon routine testing at the hospital they discovered a mass on the right side of my head above my right ear. Initially predicted to be a choroid plexus papilloma it resulted with being an ependymoma brain tumor. My primary care doctors told me that in my surgery they weren’t able to remove all of the tumor out, so I will be continuing treatment and seeing a new neurologist specialist this upcoming Monday on New Year’s. My boyfriend left me right before the holidays before knowing about all of this new latest news and I’m currently on the verge of losing my apartment. I just received a notice by my landlord to pay or be evicted by Friday for this months rent. I was barely able to make December’s rent by selling some of my personal belongings and borrowing money, but I’m completely drained at this point and I’m beyond stressed which isn’t good for my health. But I’m constantly worrying day by day about my bills, I currently have no access to get around and walk everywhere now, and my family is in another state and aren’t able to help me financially. I grew up poor and still am. I’ve been battling and struggling with poverty my whole life. My story is quite sad and I also won’t bore you with all the details, but I could really use any help at this point. I tried to reach out for assistance and benefits and any additional outside resources and unfortunately nothing is available and I’m on the waitlist for a lot of programs right now and I need help before I lose my very first and only home. Thank you all so much I couldn’t have been able to have gotten this far in my journey without each and everyone of you!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! With this New Year I am hoping that I can get closer to healing and being able to finally reach my lifelong dream of becoming a social worker and helping others.✨
