<div>Dear friends,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As many of you know my life has taken a very sudden turn due to a serious, life-threatening health condition. Much of what used to fill my days has evaporated nearly overnight, including almost all of my work and income, as healing has become a full-time job.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My condition requires immediate and intensive treatment if I am going to live and live well. It's likely to be a 2-year journey to health in the best circumstances.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Despite having insurance, the medical bills are huge and keep coming. I am just at the very start of treatment and have already spent close to $4000 in co-pays, mainly on diagnostics.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I humbly ask for your support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If I have touched your life in some way and you are able, please give as generously as you can, so that I can have the health care I need to give my body the best chance to heal. It truly does take a village, and I must reach out to all my beautiful villages now for help. This is profoundly humbling and not easy. But I can't do this without you.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please see me as vibrantly healthy and well in body and mind. Please also see me free and at peace within. My prayer request is: <em>If it be in the highest good of all, may Maxima's body-mind be restored to vibrant health and wellness and may she be deeply guided and supported on her healing journey. </em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for your support!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love and gratitude,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Maxima
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Update at 8 months into the journey &amp; other ways to give:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I'm raising my goal because I have used almost all of the funds previously raised. And the journey continues! 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am only able to work a tiny bit, so I have almost no income (currently about $1000 from Patreon and my Brilliant Playmates community--see below), and am doing a ton of treatments that add up currently to about $2000/month.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I need to raise funds to carry me through the end of this year to cover my monthly living expenses (about another $2000 a month) and health care expenses. Please give as generously as you can do so joyfully. There are several ways to support me financially:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>1. Give here on the GoFundMe site. (Please note that GoFundMe has a default option to give them 15% to cover their costs. You can just move that slider to zero so I receive your whole donation or to wherever you like.)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>2. Mail me a check if you prefer not to make payments online. This also saves the 3% credit card fee from being deducted by the bank. You can mail checks c/o Dr. Don Williams (my husband), 590 Searls Ave #13, Nevada City, CA 95959.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>3. Become a patron of mine on Patreon. This is a way to provide steady monthly support in any amount and receive wonderful things in return: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/maximakahn" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.patreon.com/maximakahn</a>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>4. If you are a creative soul, engaged with making art of any kind and you would like to take part in a community of other artists, consider joining my membership community: <a href="https://maximakahn.com/playmates/" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://maximakahn.com/playmates/</a>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love and gratitude, Maxima
</div>
