Hello and thank you so much for donating to fund my surgery and contribute to this time of massive change in my life.
So far, your donations have helped me to:
- Cover the $1400 planet tickets for my mom and me to get to the specialized dentist doing this procedure
- Buy food and basic supplies needed for the week of surgery while my mom cared for me
- Begin to pay toward the cost of the $8,750 surgery #1 that was on June 13th, which focused on extractions and implants that my body is NOT allergic to :)
- Not have to worry as much while my body is healing from 20 years of illness!
After 20 years of illness, a friend helped me uncover severe metal allergies that were causing my mysterious and debilitating symptoms.
On February 12th 2024, I had cardiothoracic surgery to remove heart surgery metals that had been in my chest and neck since age 13. I felt better overnight! It was like a miracle. I'm still extremely fatigued, and complete recovery is taking time.
My second surgery, on June 13th, isn't covered by insurance. Anything you feel called to offer to help me through this time of change, when I'm still unable to work, is SO appreciated. Additional ways to help are below in the P.S. :)
Every little bit helps. Thank you so much for donating, or sharing with your own community.

You can also donate to my Venmo - @Tara-Alexandria
If you wanted to donate flight points for my 2nd surgery coming up in mid-October, I am accepting them as the specialized dentist I am working with is in Texas. My mom and I will both need to fly there and stay for a few days for both surgeries so she can care for me while I recover.
