Ashley's Wish: See Her Daughter Graduate

Donation protected
My name is Ashley. Im 37 and have a bunch of health issues that landed me in palliative care about 3 years ago because there is no longer anything doctors can do to help me without serious risk to my life. Palliative care is basically hospice for people who need more help than pain management can give and who dont qualify for hospice because they aren't going to in a year or less. Long term hospice in shorter terms. I moved to Texas a few years back because new york didnt have the medical care I needed. Not for a lack of trying either. I have traveled all over the country for help. I have a 17 year old daughter who is set to graduate high school on June 27th in New York. She stayed with her dad to finish her high school with the friends she went ti school with her whole life and he is able to physically handle the needs of a busy High school student. Its a long story so well stick with that. So with that being said. I am trying to get together enough money to buy a ticket whether it be a plane or a greyhound home on the 24th of this month so I can watch her walk the stage at graduation. I have missed so much over the past few years and I would never be able to live with myself if I missed this too. (All my parents reading this you know what Im saying)
As of today the price of a round-trip ticket is out of the question so I juat need a ticket there and will be able to buy my ticket home when my disability check comes at the end of the month/beginning of july. I hate that it has come to this. I never ask for help, let alone ask for money. Im so used to going without and living with the reality that I have a limited fixed income and other things come first. But to watch my daughter walk across that stage. Ill gladly humble myself. Get on my knees and ask and beg and do what it takes short of starting an only fans lol. I dont have any blood family. So its not like I can ask them for help. And most of my friends are single parents or disabled themselves and funds are always short. The closest thing I had to a mother is slowly losing her battle with als so its been a rough past two weeks. (Shes still alive but quickly declining) I have always gone above ajd beyond when someone was in need. I always put everyone else before me and I volunteer for a non profit organization helping disabled patients across the country (and world) navigate the Healthcare system. Families. Friends and everyday life with thwir new reality of never again being able to be the same person they were before chronic / invisible illnesses and pain entered their lives. My best friend from high school has opened her house to me while im in ny so I just need to cover the ticket there and then ill be straight with everything else after that. I shouldve done this sooner but I didnt expect life to life so hard these past few weeks. Im trying to go on the 24th so that gives me the day to travel and then plenty of time to rest and recover and eat a slice of actual ny pizza before graduation Friday night. (Pizza in texas is depressing and just not the same) also. After the amount of surgeries I've had on my spine alone. I am going to need those couple days before I sit through a graduation class of almost 1000 kids. But whatever it takes im gonna do cause for her. I'd move the world if I could.

I know we are all struggling in our own ways , so I understand if all uou can do is share my link. I do also have cashapp if thats easier than godundme. I shared a picture of my cashapp tag along with the prices of the tickets to get home so you know im not lying and trying to do more than necessary. (I also took into consideration the price godundme takes out and taxes thats why it says the amount it says. I just need to get home to ny and watch her walk the stage.
A parents greatest wish is to watch their child make it to graduation, become an adult ajd a productive member of society. And my girl wants to go to college to learn sign language and do just exactly that. ❤️

So. Please. Like. Share. Donate. Whatever yoy can do. Ill forever be grateful. In so many more ways than you'll ever know. So please. Help me make it to watch her walk that stage.

Cashapp : $AClark1114 is my thing. Just in case.

Thank you in advance for any like share or donation. I completely understand if all yoy can do is share the link.

Sincerely.
Ashley ❤️
