UPDATE (11/16/21):
I have now been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I’m currently struggling making it through the day and am once again falling behind. This last year has been extremely difficult and I don’t know how to make ends meet while only working a single part time job (which takes every remaining ounce of energy I am capable of and is still too exhausting). I have upcoming bills I will fail to meet without assistance, any amount genuinely helps.
Hey there! My name is Cordelia and I’m in serious need of help.
In October of 2020, I was diagnosed with my second ever brain tumor — a rare pineal tectal plate glioma. Much like my first brain tumor, a biopsy and surgery is insanely risky, I’m now 2 for 2 on “inoperable” brain tumors at the age of 28. Ironically, monitoring it alone, even WITHOUT surgery or chemo is… Insanely expensive….
I briefly stepped away from GoFundMe for awhile while I worked doing gigs till I got a part time job, but due to my medical debt being sent to collections and my bills piling up, I am now incapable of keeping up and am going into crisis.
Despite the news of no growth in my most recent brain scan, I am in trouble. My bills are due and being charged faster than I am capable of making money — I am in extreme fear for my finances and my health.
I’m reinstating this goal to ensure that I do not fall behind on bills and also help me break free from my medical debt so I can get back into a doctor’s office to start talking about our next steps. I am currently alone in my battle and genuinely cannot afford the upkeep that this brain tumor requires of me and, pride aside, I need to ask for help.
My application for disability assistance has been denied, I am experiencing extreme full bodily pain, muscle spasms, nightmares, panic attacks, and an extreme loss of appetite and have lost a lot of weight in a very short period of time due to stress and a physical inability to eat. I cannot work more than 30 hours at my part time job and lack the physical stamina to do extra gig work to close the income gap. I am in financial crisis and going into emotional crisis due to this.
Thank you so much for your kindness and blessed be! My physical and mental health thanks you!!

Example of some bills:
Here’s a few screenshots of the situation with my bills. I have money due that I can’t pay because I cannot work enough due to my disabilities. As of right now, I must live almost exclusively through credit cards to survive. This is horrifying to me. I am constantly in fear of missing my payments and am verging on not being able to pay my rent. I am genuinely fearful for my housing and health situation. Anything makes a difference, and it also brings peace of mind which eases my anxiety. Please consider sponsoring a bill, I’ll be deeply grateful!!
