Help while getting necessary Medical care

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Teresa. I have been a licensed Massage Therapist for 17 years. I fell and hurt my right hip eight years ago, and I have been dealing with the pain, continuing to work and going through life as best I can.  Some days the pain is excruciating, but I try not to complain and keep going because I love what I do and how much it helps others with Chronic pain.
A recent car accident (June 2021, no fault of my own, the person who hit me had no insurance) has set me back a bit as it has affected my left side from my shoulder and left arm and my left hip down to my feet. I have continued to work, although I have recently had some x-rays done by my chiropractor, who immediately sent them to a specialist to get a more accurate reading. He (my chiropractor) thought I had cancer tumors on my right hip. Praise God, that was not the case. Turns out I have Avascular Necrosis in my Right hip, (due to my injury/fall) not enough blood flow to the bone, causing the bone to die, meaning that I will need a complete hip replacement. I have to be careful as the hip could collapse. 
The GoFundMe donations will help keep the bills in my small business paid when I have the surgery,  I will also have meds, equipment and other out of pocket expenses.
I must take the necessary time off from work  to get the medical care. The funds will also help with any extra personal and medical expenses and equipment I may need before and after the surgery. 
Since the accident a couple of months ago, my quality of life has deteriorated dramatically, and the pain on the left side of my body is excruciating, causing the bad hip (Right hip) to become even more painful. So as you can imagine, I am desperate for some relief. 
God willing, having this hip replacement will allow me to be able to sit on the floor and play, take a walk or dance with my grandchildren. Looking forward to getting back to life. 
I look forward to taking care of my clients, who are very dear to me; many of whom have become like family.  
My prayer is that God will put me with the right medical team and guide their hands in all they do. 
Please, pray about it, and if you are impressed to give, please do.  Any amount, no matter how small, will be much appreciated.  
If you can't give, please, share with others as they may be able to help.  Thank you!  God bless!
