Help Recover from Severe Leg Injury

Sometimes you need a little help from your friends
On July 4, 2025, in what would turn out to be a stupid attempt to recapture my youth, I broke my right leg playing kickball. What I thought was a sprain after 12 hours turned out to be a double break in my fibula, sprained both sides of the ankle, broke a toe, and fractured a small bone in my foot.
While my daughter and my boyfriend have been absolutely amazing, I don’t think it is fair to them, nor do I believe they are capable of absorbing me completely financially. It will be probably 6 to 10 weeks before I can return to my bartending job. My boss has been absolutely amazing and is holding my job for when I can return to full duty. In the meantime, there is talk of a benefit. I will definitely share the details of that as they become available. I am looking for a remote job that I can do from my computer at home. Sadly, every job I have looked into requires you to go to some type of office for a minimum of a week, and I am currently unable to drive at all. I will have some beaded items and some T-shirts for sale shortly, but that’s fairly negligible. That being said, I am 100% financially obliterated at the moment and cannot so much as go to the store and purchase a bottle of water by myself. Anything that is brought in would be amazing! Items that I currently cannot pay for:
- Rent
- Electricity
- Food
- Storage
- Car & Renters Insurance
- Dog Food
- Transportation
- Medication
- Dr. Bills
Anybody who knows me knows that this complete and total lack of independence is destroying my soul. I am at a complete and total loss right now and I am 100% dependent on other people physically and financially right now. I cannot leave my house at all without somebody’s help. If you see me out and about, it is because of someone else’s generosity.
