Hello! My name is Crystal. I was diagnosed with lupus nephritis when I was 20 years old. I’ve dealt with a lot in that time. I suffered a stroke at 21 and had countless other issues. I've been on chemo infusions for years, and 4 years ago I started dialysis. All with no help from family. I lost my dad and grandma in 2016/2017. So, I've mostly been on my own and having to work extra hard to pay my bills.

Well, now I’m on the fast track to transplant which would give a better quality of life. But the cost is high. The meds cost a lot plus during recovery I can’t work or cover my bills. So, I’m starting this GoFundMe to try to raise funds for when I’m recovering to cover my bills during that time and any other expenses that may occur. If you can find it in your heart to donate, I very much appreciate it. Even if it’s $1, it’s something. Anything helps. I know we’re all struggling right now, so I understand if you can’t. I appreciate everyone who donates. I just want a better life not connected to a machine every day.
