Elaina Needs Immediate Surgery Assistance

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Elaina, and I never imagined I’d be writing this.

I’m currently overseas in Malaysia, where I unexpectedly fell seriously ill. I’ve been experiencing intense stomach pain, fever, chills, and shaking — signs that point toward a possible infection like appendicitis. The doctors say I need immediate care, and possibly surgery, but the hospital requires upfront payment. I don’t have international health insurance that covers this, and I’m in a very tough position far from home.

I’m a young mom, and I’ve been doing my best to provide a beautiful life for my kids while building a life abroad with my fiancé. We document our journey on YouTube, and while this chapter isn’t what I expected, I’m trying to stay strong and keep showing up — even now.

Right now, I urgently need help covering:
• Emergency room costs
• Testing (CT scans, bloodwork)
• Antibiotics, medications
• Any surgery or hospital stay, if needed
• Safe recovery + possible flight home

Any amount helps — even just sharing this means the world to me. I’ve always believed in showing up for others, and I’m humbly asking for help in return during this scary moment.

Thank you for reading, praying, and helping however you can. I promise to pay it forward one day.

With love,
Elaina
