Hey everyone,

This is really hard for me to write, because asking for help, especially financial help...it's something I’ve always struggled with. I never want to be a burden to my family or friends. Unfortunately, I’m facing a situation where I truly can’t do this on my own.

I’m scheduled to have hernia surgery on January 27th, 2026. I received a call today about the cost, and honestly, my heart sank. Even after trying to explore my options, I simply don’t have the funds to cover it. This surgery isn’t optional, it’s something I need in order to move forward with my health and daily life. Unfortunately, my insurance won't cover as much as I thought it would.

If you’re able to help in any way at all, whether big or small, it would mean more to me than I can put into words. And if you can’t, I completely understand your support and kindness still mean everything to me.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and for always being there.

Thank you,

Cas
