Help Giggles as she recovers from heart surgery!

*Update written by Giggles theirself*

Firstly, let me give a huge shout-out to the people who have already donated and shared so far! Thanks so much for your kind generosity!

Giggles - "Chyeahboi Giglesse" on Facebook - has now had two heart procedures since Dec 1st. Whilst in the hospital prior to their scheduled procedure they found out they were sick with a blood infection that was vegetating in their heart in the valve they had scheduled to replace, and also robbed them of their ability to walk and stand. So, on Dec 1st they cleared that out and found weird damage on the other problem valve in their heart. Giggles had a very successful full-blown open-heart surgery on Dec. 13th. They are now undergoing a very extensive recovery process that includes their sternum and ribcage re-fusing together and regaining their ability to stand and walk on their own. They now have been living in the hospital since Nov 25th. Please help them cover their living costs for the next 4 months! They have a recovery space for when they can "go home" from the medical facility they have been in. HOWEVER! They need to now cover the costs of moving all their stuff out of their current household, (which is not the space they will be finishing their healing in and so why pay rent for 4 months when a storage unit is cheaper?!), pay their cellphone bill, afford creature comforts, and we also hope to accumulate a little nest egg so they can move into their own studio apartment at the end of this horrendous experience. It would help them curate a more healthful and wholesome life for their new heart. Our goal is now $3,000 - $ 4,000 (even though we will be keeping the goal set at $500 so that we for sure get all the money and "make our goal" in the fundraiser.) Giggles works very hard for our dance events, festival, and other volunteer spaces in our community and is excited to regain her mobility and use their revitalized heart to grow stronger and do stuff like DPW for Cascadia Music Festival NW, Leave No Trace at the local burner things, move speakers with the guys, and jump into even more volunteer spaces. Thank you for reading, sharing, donating, and sending healing vibes to them.

With our support, she can get the complete rest and recovery they will need for their health. Once again, please share far and wide; let's support this wonderful person through their difficult recovery!
