Donate to Ease Rae and Alex's Burden
Donation protected
Hey everybody! I'm trying to raise money to help one of my oldest and dearest friends, Rae. We have been friends since high school, that's many, many years now. Rae has had a horrible battle with her health. She has a laundry list of health issues... here goes...ESRD, Compliment 3 Glomerulopathy (C3G), Moderate Aortic Valve Regurgitation, Mild-Moderate Mitral Valve Regurgitation, Cushing's Disease, Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH), Chronic pain, DeQuervain's Tenosynovitis, Non-Epileptic Seizures, PTSD, Anxiety, Hypothyroidism, Anemia due to C3G Kidney Disease, Erythrocytosis, Osteoarthritis, Absent storage iron in bone marrow, Hirtuism, RT tibia is hollow; tried stem cells and failed, Coma 2013 & 2021, Perforated viscus & Sigmoid colon (emergency Proctosidmoidectomy) w/ colostomy in LLQ 10/8/21, revised ostomy size 01/21/23 is on dialysis, and is awaiting a kidney. She also lost her husband last year. Since then, it has been her, her awesome son, Alex, and her mother-in-law, Rose, all living together in Rose's home. Unfortunately, Rose had her own issues with her health and has recently passed. This leaves Rae and Alex with an enormous amount of stress, pressure, and unexpected and unmanageable bills to handle. All at a time when they should be free to grieve. I worry about the stress this is putting on my already sick friend who has ALWAYS been there for me when I needed someone. And sometimes even when I didn't know I needed someone. Every dollar helps. Every share counts. Alone we can't do much, but together we can move mountains. Please, if you can spare a few dollars or just share the fundraiser, it would be so helpful. I can't think of a more deserving human to get some help. Thanks for taking the time to read about my wonderful friend.
