Hi everyone,

Last May, my life changed in a split second. I was a passenger in a Lyft when we were rear ended, and I lost consciousness on impact.

Since then, it has been a long road.

I was diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury and post concussive syndrome. MRI imaging showed multiple disc herniations in my neck and lower back, including a 4 mm herniation at L5 S1 and additional herniations at C6 C7 and C5 C6. These injuries affect my nervous system, mobility, and daily function.

I live with chronic migraines, light sensitivity, cognitive fatigue, memory issues, nerve pain into my arms and legs, muscle spasms, and spinal instability. Sitting too long, screen time, driving, or physical strain can trigger intense flare ups.

I am self employed, so my brain is my ability to work. In the first month after the accident, I lost approximately $10,500 in income because I was unable to work at all. In the months that followed, ongoing neurological and spinal symptoms have continued to limit my capacity and make consistent full time work extremely difficult.

My legal case is still ongoing and has been extended another six months. While that process continues, there is a real financial gap right now.

I have secured a safe apartment and signed a lease, but I am short on move in costs and basic stabilization expenses.

I am asking for help with:

The $17,500 goal reflects a three month stabilization plan:

This gives me breathing room to continue treatment, stabilize my health, and rebuild my work capacity.

If you are able to contribute, even a small amount helps. If not, sharing this means just as much. If you are able to share this link, please use the hashtag #AlexanderStrong so I can personally thank you for your support.

With gratitude,
