Dawnie Lu's Post OP Help

In January 2024 I started feeling weak, was sick majority of the month and ended up with an infection in my body from a cracked tooth which led to not only a minor stroke but I had a bad reaction from the antibiotics that made it difficult to even think but gave me, the Dr said, around 20 or so kanker sores in less than 4 days. During that time they took blood work and did some tests. This went on for months and months with them not being exactly sure what was wrong. In May I went to the "lady" doctor where they also did some tests and they came back abnormal or inconclusive. Then in July they did a biopsy like procedure which of course was also inconclusive. Finally, 9 months later, I was told this past week that I do have what seems to be the beginning stages of cervical cancer. They have changed my quick procedure for this month into an actual surgery where they will remove my cervix and see if it has spread anywhere else. 9 months to find it and now it's a rush rush thing of course. They wanted to get me in right away but I have to have time to figure out at least a day or two of someone taking care of all the animals when I get home so I had to put it off a few weeks. I am suppose to stay in bed for at least 2 weeks and then no heavy lifting or strenuous activities for 6 weeks. Those who know me know that that is absolutely impossible with so many live animals that need things daily. But I do not want to push myself any further than I have to and make it worse and or longer than it needs to be so I am hoping with your help I can take a couple weeks off after the surgery from working so I can do what I need to do here and not be pushing myself to the limit like I normally do. So I am starting this fundraiser in hopes to get enough donations to pay my rent, utilities and to make sure my fridge is stocked with what I need before I go in on September 23rd. if I'm able to do these things it will be such a humongous stress reliever and possibly I could just concentrate on getting better. This has been a very long year and I am glad that they finally figured it out before it was too late. Any and all donations will go strictly to rent, utilities, food and supplies I would need for at least a few weeks. I appreciate any help you can give to make my post-op go smoothly. Thanks everyone. I am sending much love out there to y'all ✌️❤️
