Help Anasuya Rebuild Her Health & LIfe

Hello! My name is Denise Christopher, a sister-friend and fellow Intentional Creativity Healing Artist and Facilitator of Anasuya. I have known Anasuya for a short time. It was one of those moments where it feels like “love at first sight”. You know, when you meet someone, the feelings are immediately familiar and fill your soul. Well, that was my experience when meeting Anasuya, and I do not doubt many others have had this experience in meeting her, too, because she is a true and beautiful soul, raw and real and LOVING. She is always helping. When I suggested I wanted to do a GoFundMe page she was soooo reluctant and, instead, deflected and wanted to know how she could support me! That’s who she is~ a contributor and survivor. And I know, I deeply feel that she survived (or chose to come back) her near death accident because there is so much more she is to do; so many more lives she will touch. And, that is why I am driven to initiate this GoFundMe campaign. Much Love to you for caring enough to come here!

What She Needs NOW: Anasuya needs money now for RENT for NOVEMBER 01, 2021-APRIL 2022, HEALTHIER FOOD, NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS, AND TRANSPORTATION for the next six months, so that she can continue to recover from a near-fatal car accident that requires a lot of specialists, time and money that she just doesn’t have. In February, the doctors predicted that she would be healed and ready to fly by September 2021 but a torn bicep (Slap Tear) and meniscuses required three more surgeries and months of rehabilitation (bringing the total to five surgeries); ongoing brain trauma and PTSD; and now a newly discovered cardiac abnormality is requiring that she stay longer in medical care. Her lease was up in September, but mercifully, her landlord is allowing her to stay put.

Anasuya is doing all of this rehabilitation recovery with little-to-no income from her much-loved editing of manuscripts and with contributions from friends. Most months she falls short of her need so some things get sacrificed.

I am setting up this fund to give Anasuya the peace of mind and true healing that her current levels of stress, anxiety and sleeplessness are preventing from happening. The doctors now tell her that she will need care at least until March (her birthday month) five months from now, a full 13 months after her accident. It could be longer. Her rent for November is coming up quickly on top of her past due for October. She has transportation, food and other survival necessities to secure and, due to her last surgery on her left shoulder, she worked very little in October and has fallen behind in her bills.

Anasuya has contributed so much to others throughout her life. She is always there for others as a friend, a kick-butt coach, a prayer warrior and always with a plate of food to feed you. She has gone across the world letting love lead her to volunteer and offer her healing workshops to trauma, rape and abuse victims, orphans, youth at risk and other people who have lost their voice and hope due to their abuse.

Now, it's Anasuya who really needs our help NOW!

I am grateful Anasuya did give her permission for this page, and is opening herself up for your love and your support. I know this is difficult for Anasuya to be in this place of not having the bodily strength to support herself financially. But it truly is about her having the resources needed to provide a stress free place for her to heal.

I hope in her own words below, you get a sense of this amazing woman, what she has gone through, and how she is fighting with everything she’s got to come back, to get healthy again, so that she can do what she does best - help/serve.

WHAT HAPPENED TO ANASUYA?

In her own words….

I had a near-fatal car crash at the beginning of this year late at night out in the California desert near Palm Springs as I was driving from Tucson, Arizona to San Francisco, California. I was told by the doctor that the EMTs said I fell asleep at the wheel, drove off the road and flipped the car three times. I died and, by the grace of God, I was resuscitated by the paramedics. Yes, I saw the light and yes, I had THAT conversation with God where I was given a choice to stay with Them or return to my life on Earth. I had been unconscious for a few hours before they could get my permission to perform the surgery since they didn't know of an emergency contact person to call. I was "Jane Doe" ~ no one knew my name. At that time, my left arm was broken in two places and was peeled back like a banana. I am so grateful that I did not see that. I was also suffering from burns and a large hematoma (swelling, bruising, on the left side of my face, eye and head from the traumatic brain injury I got when my head went through the driver's side window in one of those flips. My left arm went through the glass as well leaving lacerations that look like a bear clawed my upper arm. Another part of my arm was also burned. I took glass out of my scalp for seven days. I didn't know until the following day that my knees had been jammed into the steering wheel and were having trouble bending; that I would need surgery on both knees because it was now hard to walk without a walker or crutches. I didn’t know yet that both of my shoulders were fractured and would need surgery

WHAT’S GOING ON NOW/ THE NEED NOW

Since the accident a lot of different things have been revealed about my current health condition, including a very serious issue, hidden for a long time from my doctors, which causes me to lose consciousness. I honestly didn’t know this had been going on in my brain for years, I just thought I was tired and depleted from hustling, working, studying and evolving like everybody else. My brain injury has scrambled my short-term memory and affected my speaking for a few months. My memory has definitely gotten better with time and is still healing. The migraines, the nerve damage, the constant pain and swelling throughout my body, the legs spontaneously giving out, the dizziness are all still there though improving. Hallelujah! I still wear the wristband "Fall Risk" nine months later because... I still am one.

I have had three surgeries and will have two more. My brain is taking its delicate time to birth new neural pathways to greater neuroplasticity~YES, we can Grow a new brain! Thank God! We’re still looking into a light “aneurysm event” I seemed to have had. Getting my left arm and hand to work again after extensive nerve and tendon damage on top of the broken bones took six months of occupational therapy. They have been restored up to 95%. The Neurologist found a hole in my heart that causes blackouts, strokes, heart attacks and aneurysms so off to the Cardiologist I went. I am still in the testing phase. Then to keep things exciting, my face started drooping and sliding on the left side. Why it’s Bell's Palsy! I am still recovering from asymmetrical paralysis and swelling. I have used space age-looking wrist, arm braces, knee braces on both legs, crutches, a walker and a wheelchair. They don't call me the Bionic Woman for nothing.

I spend anywhere from 25-30 hours a week going to doctor appointments, two different outpatient rehab facilities; to the hospital for all kinds of testing and to the pharmacy. I see the Orthopedic Surgeon, Neurologist, Pulmonologist, Cardiologist and Psychotherapist for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I use four different taxi companies regularly so all of the dispatchers know me. I spend 1-2 hours every Monday scheduling the rides to and fro appointments. Most of my drivers I have repeatedly so I hear the absolute best stories that are proof that divine interventions can happen anywhere if we are listening with the eyes of the heart. We heal each other. Besides these outings, I am mostly home alone. There's not been many opportunities to meet people and make new friends. I am so grateful for the internet!
