Selfless. Kind. Strong. Empathetic. Caring. Perseverance. These are just a few words that describe my mom. She's always willing to give a helping hand, lots of the time putting her own needs aside and ignoring her own problems. Throughout the almost 23 years of my life, I have watched her put others first, including my brother and I. She's impacted so many lives and is truly the greatest of role models. All this to say, this time I come to you asking for help on her behalf. The past few years my mom has been in a lot of pain. She has severe arthritis in both knees and has been saving up for a knee replacement. Recently she's been having some problems with clients canceling on her. She is worried she's going to have to cancel her surgery that's scheduled for the end of May, so that she can use the money that she has saved to pay her current bills. So I'm here asking, if my mom has impacted your life in any way, please consider donating anything that you can to help her have a better quality of life. There are days that she can't even walk because she is in so much pain, and it's so hard to see. She would be out of work for a little bit, and is needing help with not only medical bills but every day expenses. So I come to you asking, if you can help in any way, Please do.

She knows nothing about this and is blocked from this post, so please don't mention or share it with her. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.
