Help Braden and Amanda Overcome Financial Strain

I appreciate you clicking the link. This was very hard for me to write as I’ve done one of these before about Braden’s knee surgery back in Jan 2022. I feel ashamed but I was encouraged to make one anyway. So here it is.

Braden has been having chronic migraines — pretty much every day for over a month. While he has FMLA, we haven’t had any income from him for that amount of time. His last paycheck was $144.

We have no savings and tbh we might not make mortgage/heat/electricity/car payment etc. all together next month. While we are out about a bit more than 4k in paychecks, we think we can slowly get by if money staggers in this month.

My paycheck between disability and my PT job is about 2k. If we can get him back to work to focus on December’s bills we might be able to level out. Still paycheck to paycheck but in this perfect world he will be better and we will have more opportunities to save.

mortgage ($1430) Nov 5 (we have exactly enough to pay this and pretty much nothing else)

heat ($195) Nov 8

car ($480) Nov 15

electricity ($120) Nov 22

Other bills (I’m not sure. I’m guessing $300?)

-then there’s food (we are utilizing food banks and applied for SNAP EBT) but those take time.

-also doctors appointments. Bills are piling up and we still have to visit new doctors for him to figure out this migraine situation. Any money towards that will help.

I’m hating this because it feels like begging. We are actively working our butts off trying to figure out what the cause of his migraines are and how to stop them. If you want updates on his progress I will try to post here or just reach out.

thanks for reading. And if you can thanks for donating. I hope you don’t think less of us. We are trying our best.
