Help Emma Overcome Medical Debt Crisis

Donation protected
Hello there!

My name is Emma, and I’m raising funds to help cover a sudden onslaught of medical bills.

About three weeks ago, I had to go to the doctor for severe back pain. It was diagnosed as Sciatica, and I received treatment, but it didn’t improve. Shortly after, I went to urgent care, the emergency room, my regular provider, urgent care twice more, and more recently, the emergency room again. I’ve also started physical therapy.

The real kicker? I don’t have any insurance coverage at all right now. I’m trying to get covered, but it’s been a hassle thus far, and I fear I may not be accepted.

With all these bills piling up, it’s getting harder and harder to stay optimistic. Right now, I need to cover a $1200 hospital bill, $400 for PT, plus the charges for my urgent care visits. I haven’t yet received the second hospital bill, but it’s expected any day now. I also have weekly follow-ups with PT, which will each cost between $100-200. I’m asking for funds to cover all of this, and rent on top of it all.

Any amount is helpful, and I’m very grateful for any support!! It means a lot!
