UPDATE: Surgery 4/22 went well. There were 4000 shock waves administered and laser to the left kidney to break up the stones. There were two impassable stones, one was temporarily pinned in order to not block the path to the stent for successful exiting. A second surgery is likely to occur to remove the larger pinned stone, observe the two cysts in the right kidney and perform a bladder scope.

The change of surgery facilities last moment allowed a down payment and payment plan of 60 days for the remaining balance. Any assistance is greatly appreciated, no amount too small, it all counts. Shares and prayers are greatly appreciated.

If you choose to support Kimberly and wish to donate on a different platform please contact her directly.

Thanks to all of the support we have received at this time.

I am reaching out on behalf of my dear friend and co-worker Kimberly Epperly, who is currently facing a medical emergency. She is in urgent need of surgery that has been scheduled for Tuesday, April 22nd.

Unfortunately, the total cost of the procedure is $4,500, and she has not yet met her insurance deductible or out-of-pocket maximum for the year. As a result, the full financial burden is falling on her during an incredibly difficult time.

She has been in significant pain for nearly four weeks, and this surgery is essential for her recovery and well-being. Delaying or postponing the procedure could worsen her condition and prolong her suffering—but without financial support, that may become her only option.

To help ease this burden and ensure she can move forward with the surgery as planned, I’ve started this GoFundMe campaign. Every contribution, no matter the size, will go directly toward covering the cost of the operation and helping her get back on the road to recovery.

Please consider donating or sharing this fundraiser with others who might be willing to help.

Your support truly means the world.

Thank you in advance.

Denise
