Amanda Jo's Iron Infusions

Donation protected



This has been a bit of an ego lesson for me- so here we go.

For the last nearly two years, something has felt off... I’ve become increasingly tired and mentally bogged down many times throughout the week. My immune system has been at an all time low with two rounds of pneumonia previously backed by bronchitis and an ER fainting trip  a month prior. My weights gone down and I’ve been struggling with intense anxiety again-  there’s been a lot of signs but I kept writing it off as “not taking care of my body as well as I can”, or “motherhood is a tiring time”...

Last week I finally did a very in depth blood panel and found out that I am so severely anemic that I am only 1 hemoglobin point above requiring blood transfusions. My Ferritin is also dangerously low at a level of 3.
In order to immediately boost my iron and come into a place of healing myself, I’ll be undergoing a series IV iron infusions starting July 8.

Not only is this costly, buts it’s also pretty emotionally triggering for me to hang out with an IV in my arm for hours after having hyperemesis with Asher.
Asking for help isn’t easy... it’s a hugely vulnerable thing. And I’m doing it anyway. I want to get back to my life’s work and creating for you all. I want to be a present mother for my children and I want to be at my optimum health again ... I am owning my healing, finally.

I started this gofundme for these infusions, and would be so so grateful if you feel called to donate for this unexpected medical need. Anything helps.

Thank you all ♥️♥️♥️
