My name is Cherie, and I am reaching out for help as I prepare for a major surgery this week. Since being diagnosed with diabetes and kidney failure on October 14, 2025, life has changed dramatically. Everyday tasks like driving, sleeping, and eating have become a struggle, and the stress of managing my health while keeping up with bills has been overwhelming.

The upcoming surgery is necessary, but it means I’ll be out of work for a while. I am seeking support to help with my insurance deductible, food expenses, prescriptions, and transportation for my family to get to and from school and other essential activities, since there are no buses available. These costs add up quickly, and I want to make sure my family is taken care of while I focus on recovery.

Anything you can do to help is deeply appreciated. Your support will make a real difference for me and my family during this difficult time. Thank you for considering a donation and for being part of a caring community.
