Help Gavin on his medical wellness and financial security

Praise God, praise God for the opportunity that He gives us to love and encourage and nurture for His Kingdom! Paul’s ministry showed that we are to REALLY LOVE! (Romans 12:9) James 2:14-26 says, “Faith without works is dead” and if your neighbor, your Brother or Sister, shares a need and we can meet it then we should, all in THE NAME OF JESUS! My young friend Gavin , who has had a hard life since birth with medical issues, toxic and dysfunctional family, has been taking care of himself most of his life. Gavin has no family now and really has never had anyone to support him or give him encouragement. His mom died when he was 10 and his dad did not want him. He was passed around as a child to people who used him for his benefits and after they drained him dry, passed him off to someone else. Gavin has always been able to work and get by, but in this last year he has been suffering with several medical issues. His heart rate dramatically raises and lowers for no reason, even when he is not doing anything. His cardiologist told him that he needed to correct it or he would have heart failure. On top of this condition, he needs surgery for his esophagus, which causes him to feel nauseous all the time and not be able to stomach food. He has used all of his resources and is now dry. His bills are stacking up and he is not able to continue care. Both of these conditions, but especially the heart have made it so that he cannot function in a work environment. Even just taking out the trash is taxing and causes him to have to rest. He is 22, potentially has to have 2 surgeries for his heart and his stomach and has been struggling financially. Gavin’s heart does not beat correctly and that is hard on your whole body, organs, mental health, and energy. He can’t have the medical treatment he needs, food, transportation, and other needs if he doesn’t have the funds. His medical issues have prevented him from doing labor intensive jobs. His last job let him go because he had to have an ambulance called for his condition and was in the emergency room to frequently. He needs work that will allow him to be able to lay quietly when his heart rate bounces around. Gavin wants to be able to work, pay his own way and continue to maintain independence. Bottom line is that he needs help financially and God is giving us all opportunity to help. If we help him with the medical needs, he can be healed and get back to working as a productive citizen in society. With our help, he will then be able to give back and he so desperately wants to help others. I am praying that you are available for this! Please pray about this! I want gavin to SEE THE LOVE OF CHRIST through this! Our job is to reveal Christ and His AGAPE LOVE! (2 Corinthians 5:14-15) Thank you for your prayers, consideration and help!

UPDATES:
As you all know via the post I made I changed my name, as such, I have changed the names in this to reflect that.

as far as my cardiac health is concerned, I was diagnosed with POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) . You’re currently working through treatment, plans and medication to find what works to treat that. Other than that, I am awaiting an echo to make sure there’s no structural damage to my heart.

As far as my stomach is concerned, due to the outrageous cost of the tests and office visits to the gastroenterologist. I have not been able to make any progress in that way. Currently looking for options to Resolve that. Outlook there is a probable two surgeries.

as Far as my disability case is concerned, We are estimating that I hopefully have about 2 to 3 months until I get a hearing and hopefully will have a source of income. Unfortunately, until that point I have no means of generating income. Which has ultimately led to the decision to share this again so that I can possibly Raise the funds to continue to sustain myself and keep my bills paid as well as keep up with my doctors visits/medication costs.

Finally I was also told That some people are uncomfortable, giving here on GoFundMe because of the fees or whatever is associated with it makes people uncomfortable that being said I will include my Cash app and Venmo down below to give people an alternate means of donating. Thank you all for your continuous, kind words and support.
