Hi! You may know me online as Piquipauparro, the plushie artist

As you may know I make a living through my art, my most popular work being my plushie art, design and making!

I also do other works like knitting, crocheting, painting, sculpting, needle felting and more!

So you can tell my hands do lots of the hard work and magic to bring my ideas to life.

This is why my current situation is causing me major distress and worry .

You see, on the 31 of October I suffered quite an injury on my wrist while horse riding. The horse bucked me off, I fell and bruised my face, ribs and arm, but my left hand got the worst part of it.

I have a Distal Radius Fracture... and it got fractured in many pieces and the pieces displaced. I'm currently dealing with pain but managing.

After consulting with the specialist, its been determined i will need surgery, which involves getting the wrist open and a metal plaque installed

Not going to lie, the whole idea freaks me out, the idea of getting such delicate and important body part tampered with is quite scary, plus, local anesthesia surgeries trigger my PTSD from previous experiences.

The thing is...

I'm currently on a tricky financial situation , for the last several couple of months shipping to usa has been suspended due to the tariffs situation. so I haven't been able to sell finished works to those that have been the most interested.

Atop of that, just weeks ago one of my chihuahas needed surgery due to an odd mole growth, analysis and everything to assess if it is benign or not, results are not ready yet, i pray its nothing serious.

And! atop of that! I infact had surgery just early September for a different health issue! , so yeah, I had major stress levels and couldn't get much done

And so, I come to You today, asking for help, something i usually avoid doing, but this time, its just to much to deal with atm.

It would mean the world to me if you could help me out rising the funds for me to afford this surgery, you would be taking off a huge weight of my shoulders.

Thank you so much for reading this far, any ammount would help even if small, knowing there are people ou there that care about my situation can really do wonders to lift my spirits ❤️‍

from the bottom of my heart
