My health has been declining for years, and after a long search for answers, I was diagnosed with POTS, primary immunodeficiency disease, and MCAS. I started treatment for everything in August, and it has been much harder than I ever expected. My husband is also sick, and while doctors believe he has autoimmune IBD (which has shown up in his imaging), we simply cannot afford the out-of-pocket costs for the colonoscopy and the treatment he needs. We are barely keeping ourselves afloat. I have tried to work more to help cover our expenses, but my body just cannot handle it, and the stress of pushing myself has made my treatments less effective. I am not getting any better. We don’t know anyone in this area, as I am not from here, and while my family has helped as much as they can, we need more support. I have been so ashamed to ask for help, but we are at a point where we simply cannot do this alone anymore. The funds raised will go directly toward our medical bills, treatments, regular household bills, food, child care, gas money for my many specialist appointments, medications, supplements, medical equipment, braces, and daily living expenses. Your support will allow us both to rest and focus on healing, instead of pushing ourselves to work beyond our limits just to survive. I know everyone is going through a hard time right now, and it means so much to us that you would even consider helping. We have been pushing ourselves past our breaking point for years, and we simply cannot keep doing it. We need help and are so grateful and thankful for any prayers and donations. Your kindness and generosity will make a real difference in our lives, and we appreciate any support you can give.
