Help Fund Life-Changing Back Surgery

Donation protected
I need help paying for back surgery on May 16th. The surgery itself out of pocket is $2,889 plus $200 for previous dr visits, not counting much I’d owe the surgeon out of pocket. (I don’t know that amount yet)

I’ve had back issues for 13 years, but it got debilitating in 2020 after volunteering at my local church with relief for hurricane Laura. Ever since then I’ve been trying to solve this back issue. Thousands of dollars spent on chiropractors, injections, acupuncture, weight loss, exercise, home equipment, physical therapy, every other option to no avail. Surgery is the last option

I used to be able to tithe and serve my church as a musician. I used to take pride in my physical strength and work ethic, as well as the time and effort I put into the band.

Now I’m humbling myself and asking you all for help.. I need this surgery so that I can live my life, I want to get a better job, exercise, move to Tennesee, and someday start a family.. getting this surgery is the first step to make that happen, to live my life again.

If I don’t have enough money, then I have to cancel the surgery. If that happens I won’t give up, I’ll try again. But I’ll have to endure the debilitating pain for that much longer.

Every single dollar will help my on my path to living out my simple vision for my life. Even if you can’t donate, sharing my post will also be appreciated ☺️

Thank you all for your support!
