Anthony's Health Battle: Cant Do This Alone

My name is Anthony Clancy. I run/own @usconnect2021.

Forgive not realIy knowing how to do a fundraiser. I have only had to do this 1 other time. I only raised the bare minimum needed at the time since then I haven't had to do one in a year or maybe longer.

The small business that has gotten me through until now no longer covers my medical expenses. (I guess nobody wants DVDs any more)

I have to raise small amount to get through I am from the USA but in Thailand now where medical is much faster and more affordable for things not covered by insurance. Not to mention food is cheaper too.

I attached a Medical Certificate Estimate from Bumrungrad Hospital which is a hospital I have used for more than 10 years now. They know my history and I can walk right in and get whatever done and get out it is in Thai Baht.

Here you don't have to go to primary care, get referrals, and wait, wait, wait. You can do in 1 or 2 days what takes months to do in the US. I could walk in without an appt and might have to wait a few minutes but I could see any doctor I want to. GI, ENT, Cardiologist etc. Or even all in the same day.

I don't waste money. I live in a little capsule/hostel hotel that costs about $7 a day sometimes $8. There is 30 of these in 1 room so there is no real privacy. Even inside the pod you ear people coming and going all night every night. There is basically never any rest/sleep.

I eat only 1 meal a day at the moment and try not to spend more than 100 Baht which is about $3.20 USD at the current rate.

I am running this campaign to try to do the following.

1. Most important is there is a few hundred in medicines I have been going without that I need to get done. I spend what I have coming in and then there is just nothing left. I would love to put together enough to do the IV treatments. That is the only time I felt somewhat normal.

2. I would like to eat more than 1 time per day. My doctor says I am losing weight too quickly.

3. I need to get a ct scan. I did find a place where I can get it done at an outside imaging source that can be done for around 19000 - 20000 baht which is just a little over $600. This is less than half of what the hospital wants.

4, I would love to get out of this little space capsule and into a little larger place with better wifi and more conducive to work so I can help grow the X account for myself and others. Every time I am offline my accounts drop. I want to make it stronger and more reliable. Not just for me but for others that can help. It is about the only thing I am healthy enough to do at the moment.

I noticed that Gofundme has tabs starting at $50 but you don't have to do that much. You can enter a custom amount $10 $20 or even $5. Heck $5 is an extra meal so a little can mean a lot.

The endoscopy and the colonoscopy can wait for a little while until we get the results back from the ct scan. The doctor is hoping she can reveal what is going on with just the CT but if not then we have to look at redoing the colonoscopy and endoscopy. There is a spot in the middle of my throat somewhere that they need to keep following up that has to be biopsied.

I am sorry to ask but I really don't have any family other than the Brothers and Sisters here on X. The business that was supporting me for about a year now has taken a nosedive so it no longer covers the kinds of things I could normally do by myself.
