I am reaching out to my community for support during a rough time in my life. I am grateful for your support during this time.

In October I pinched a sciatic nerve on my right side. After a few weeks of working through the pain I had to take a break to heal.

I have done numerous therapies and things to get better as fast as I could so I could return to work as soon as possible - and it’s working. However, nannying is a necessity for the families I worked for and after a mutual discussion we decided to part ways, resulting in me being let go. Although I enjoyed my time with these families, in the end it is better for me to find a new job. This does mean I entered a period of no work… after a stint of time off.

Despite experiencing anxiety about my health and future income possibilities, I am staying positive and have plans in place for a great start to this new year feeling better and being employed. But the fact is I need help getting through this rough patch till income starts coming in again.

I need help paying basic needs such as rent, utilities, and assistance with my car troubles (repairs and replacement costs).

Any help is genuinely so appreciated. I know it’s the holiday season and things are hard for everyone and so I thank you for reading, considering, and sharing.
