Help cover out of province care

Hi, my name is Jude Pelley, and I'm a professional musician based in rural Nova Scotia, Canada. Recently, I've fallen seriously ill, and I'm unable to work as I have been accustomed to, due to fatigue, pain, and weakness. My condition is worsening, and I face a potential year or longer to wait for a diagnostic procedure that may help me recover, or, at the very least, properly diagnose what's happening to me. I can get the procedure done out of province, with very little wait time; but private health procedures come with a substantial cost. So I'm appealing to friends, family, and even just plain kind hearted folks out there, to chip in a dollar or two to help me get out from under this and back up on stage again, where I belong.
