Help Our Family Through Medical and Financial Hardships
Hi everyone,
This is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do — asking for help. But right now, my family and I are facing a series of overwhelming challenges, and I’m reaching out in the hope that kindness and support from others can help us stay afloat.
Last year, my daughter had to undergo extensive neurological testing after some concerning health issues. While we’re grateful for the care she received, we’re still left with over $17,000 in unpaid medical bills that insurance didn’t cover. We've been doing our best to chip away at it, but it's been a constant weight on our shoulders.
More recently, I was in a serious car accident that totaled one of our vehicles. Unfortunately, we still owed on the car, and now transportation has been a bit more difficult insurance is still figuring out how much we owe which could be anywhere from $1,000- $3,000.
And now, just as we were trying to catch our breath, I’ve been diagnosed with an adnexal mass on my left ovary. My doctors have told me that I will need surgery soon, and with it comes more time off work, more medical bills, and more uncertainty.
Everything seems to be hitting us all at once, and while I wish I could handle it on my own, I’m humbly asking for your support. Whether it’s a donation, a share, or just keeping us in your thoughts — anything means the world to us right now.
Every dollar will go toward:
-Paying down my daughter’s medical bills
-Covering costs from the totaled vehicle
-Preparing for my upcoming surgery and recovery
-support to fix our house drain $1900 from rotorooter estimate. Main pipes are galvanized.
-Keeping up with essential monthly bills while I heal.
My family has done as much as they can already. I feel awful to have to request support in this way. I appreciate any effort to help.
Thank you for taking the time to read our story. We know times are hard for many people right now, and your kindness truly gives us hope.
With love and grace
