Help Gerard for his surgery

Hey guys, 

So I don't really like asking for help but i'm really stuck. About 4 weeks ago I suffered a high grade Syndesmosis injury from a stupid mistake while on a trip with my mates. Due to this I can not walk without a moon boot until I have surgery but as my health insurance doesn't cover hospital it is now out of pocket. The pickle is I can't work anymore to try earn more money as i'm not allowed on my feet and currently already pushing it too much and also working for myself I don't get paid for taking time off. 

I have to have a tightrope surgery to pull my bones (Tibia and fibula) back together to prevent further injury and also to be able to walk again. This is costing me $10,000. I am trying to raise just half of the costs so I can get this done ASAP. 

I've had to unfortunately cancel my 30th birthday which was in around 4 weeks to pay for this. I planned to hire a venue, put money on the bar and hire a photographer so everyone could get some nice photos and I had some nice memories. Which i've now cancelled :( 
So i'm just asking if you would have "bought me a drink" or even "came out for my birthday" please instead help me with this surgery. 

For anyone that knows me I'm always the first person to offer to help when someone needs it and now Im asking for some help. This injury has stopped a lot of things I had planned this year but I know i've got some amazing friends to support me when things get hard. 

Thank you, 
Gerard
