Hello, my name is Eric Olson and it truly pains me to ask for assistance, but my wife Bambi and I are in an extremely tough situation. Bambi has defeated a myriad of health issues over the last 6+ years as well as carried an immense emotional burden. After 9 surgeries and countless tests and doctor's appointments, we are finally close to acquiring disability benefits for her that will give us the relief and stability we desperately need.

Unfortunately, though we are close, money has been stretched too thin and we are now running behind on major bills. With the government shutdown, social security has stopped its processing so approval will be delayed even further. I hope that the shutdown will be short-lived and will not affect my income, but I unfortunately need to ask my friends, family, and any generous people who come across this for donations. Any amount truly helps, and we are blessed to have you in our lives. Thank you.

Eric Olson
