Help Through Surgeries, Feeding Tube, & Cancer Journey

Donation protected
Hi everyone,

This is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to write, but I’m learning that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is asking for help.

As many of you know, in 2022, I donated part of my liver. I don’t regret this decision for a second — it was made out of love, and I would do it again. However, since that time, I’ve experienced a significant decline in my health, including new autoimmune issues and ongoing complications that have left my body struggling to function normally. These health challenges have compounded everything I’m currently facing and have made it impossible for me to work.

Over the last few years, my health has drastically changed my life in ways I never expected. I’ve had both ovaries removed, and now I’m facing another major surgery to remove part of my small bowel. Because of severe digestive complications, I’m also preparing for a feeding tube transition, which comes with its own physical, emotional, and financial challenges.

At this time, I am waiting on Medicaid approval, and my surgery is expected to take place within the next month. Unfortunately, life and bills don’t pause while approvals process, and the financial strain during this waiting period has been overwhelming.

I’m asking for help with:
• Basic living expenses (rent, utilities, groceries)
• Medical bills related to surgery and recovery
• Supplies and care needed during my feeding tube transition
• The ability to focus on healing without the constant fear of falling behind financially

This season has been deeply humbling. I’ve spent a lot of time in prayer, and I truly believe God places people in our paths to help carry us when we’re too weak to carry ourselves. If you feel led to give, please know that every dollar, prayer, and share means more than I can express.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, for your support, and for walking alongside me during such a vulnerable chapter. I’m holding onto faith, trusting that God is still writing my story, even when the road ahead feels uncertain.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Dani Lee
