This is hard to share, but we're asking for help during a short-term medical and financial crisis. After years of pushing through injury, trauma, and stress, my health has declined to where I can't safely work right now. Every time I try to look for a job or even do daily tasks, my body reacts with severe symptoms, sometimes causing me to faint. My husband's income is not enough to cover our monthly expenses, so we're sinking fast and doing everything we can to stay afloat. We're one unexpected small expense away from everything unraveling.

Right now, I need at least 2-3 months to rest, heal, and see about surgery, but we simply can't afford it. The funds raised will help us cover our mortgage, groceries, and utilities, and will also allow us to care for our beloved cat who is suffering and needs to be put down. This support will help us stabilize our living situation and give me a real chance to recover without risking further harm.

If you’re able to help, it would mean the world to my family and me. Any support, no matter the amount, would help us get through this difficult time and give me a chance to heal. Please don’t feel any obligation—donations are only if you want to, and simply sharing this is incredibly helpful. Thank you for reading.
