Bobby's surgury

Donation protected
Life can be really hard sometimes. I recently had brain surgery at Yale-New Haven Hospital to fix the shunt that got clogged up with fluids and which caused a brain clot. I am still recovering. I hope to go back to work in a few weeks, but in the meantime, I need help. With no income for two months and expenses piling up, I am in a tough place right now.

Life is really hard sometimes. Having gone through 5 foster homes and 2 group homes, having to undergo three brain surgeries at Yale-New Haven Hospital to remove cysts in my brain twice and fix the shunt which was clotting up the fluids, having grown up in poverty with no toys or games, having to go to bed hungry at night, having Aspergers and being relentlessly bullied for being different dispute the fact that I never wanted to be different, having been beaten and locked in closets and never loved or cared for, the only thing I want in life is to be happy. But instead, things have only gotten worse, and it doesn’t feel good right now.

I feel really bad asking for help. I feel selfish and I don't want people to hate me. But I also don't want to be evicted or have my car towed away just because I failed to be responsible. Life is tough right now and I feel like I have no good options. I really appreciate any help I can be provided. I promise I will do my best if I successfully make it through to help everyone else who needs help and to make my community and the world a better place.

I want to go into law and politics since I was in middle school because I know what it is like to grow up without a family and to go through winters without heat and food and I went to bed a lot of nights hungry at night, and no child should ever have to go through that and no person should ever be left behind. I want to be a good advocate and help people. 

The truth is I went through a lot in life and I don't want to struggle anymore and I don't want to suffer anymore. I want to be self-sufficient. I want to have a normal life. I want to be like everyone else. I want to be happy. I wish I had a family. I wish I didn't have to have brain surgery and I could just focus on work and the bar exam and helping people. But God is testing my strength yet again and I honestly don't know if I am strong enough to succeed in everything I need to go through in the next two months so I need help. But I understand if you and others can't help me. I know times are tough so if you can't help donate then prayers and good wishes would help me just as much.
