Help me heal: support for brain surgery and recovery

Help Tia Heal: Support for Brain Surgery & Recovery

“Faith does not make things easy, it makes them possible.” — Luke 1:37

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,

With a heavy yet hopeful heart, I’m reaching out to share something deeply personal. I’ve recently been diagnosed with a brain tumor that is affecting me neurologically and medically requires brain surgery. Depending on how things progress, I may also need chemotherapy following the procedure.

As I prepare to walk through one of the most difficult chapters of my life, I’m humbly asking for help. I’m doing my best to raise funds before the surgery to help cover my living expenses, medical bills, and the challenges that will come during my recovery. The truth is, I want to be able to focus fully on healing — not worrying about how I’ll keep up with everything while I’m out of work.

Anyone who knows me knows I’ve always led with love. I’m a woman of faith, and I truly believe in the power of prayer, community, and the goodness of people. I’ve always been someone who shows up — for my family, for my friends, and for strangers. I’ve carried my family both emotionally and financially for a long time, and I do it from a place of deep love and purpose.

This time, I’m learning how to receive — and that’s not easy for me. But I trust that God provides, and that there is no shame in asking when your back is against the wall. I believe that He puts people in your life for a reason, and maybe you’re reading this right now because you’re one of those people He’s using to show me that I’m not alone.

If you feel led to give — no matter how big or small — please know that it will lift a tremendous burden off my shoulders during this season. And if you’re not in a position to give financially, I ask for your prayers. Truly, I believe in the power of prayer, and I welcome every word of healing, protection, and strength spoken over my life.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for taking the time to read my story. Your kindness, your prayers, your support — they all mean more to me than I could ever put into words.

May God bless you and cover you with the same grace and compassion I’ve always tried to show to others.

With love, faith, and deep gratitude,

Tia H
