Help Sati, Single Mother, While Recovering from Injury

Donation protected

Dear Donors,

This finger injury will take 2 years to fully heal, it has been 7 months and 19 days today, June 03, 2025. My recovery has been remarkable, I have to say that. The 5 months X-ray didn’t show much bone regrowth, but my finger is definitely stronger and on its path to a full recovery. I still have aways to go, my hand use is restricted. I am reintroducing simple movements.

My life has changed forever. I am so grateful I have access to knowledge that gave me hope and certainty of healing. The human body is truly miraculous when supported to perform its miracles, and after 5 months, my MD finally agreed with me that I will heal.

This journey of being hurt has led me to reflection through a difficult time. What have I been spending my life doing? Was I dedicated to serve? What and who am I serving? Life has put me through multiple experiences with no time for reflection, stumbling upon the way. Time for reflection came forced upon me. The one who needed me the most is my daughter.

I am still rebuilding myself. My finger is fragile, every trivial work that I reintroduce in my daily life is a victory, like cooking or doing dishes. I am so grateful to be able to play the notes on the piano! It's pleasant to to have a sane body, and surprisingly thrilling to return to wholesomeness with these simple tasks that I took for granted...

I am still fundraising as my financial life has turned to shambles without being able to work much. I've been working with a company that I appreciate and admire, and teaching a bit of Antigym® although it isn't steady enough yet to support me 100%. I joined a Toastmasters group to become a better communicator, and made wonderful friends there. The lawsuit against the workplace is its early stages. I've been looking for more work that I am able to perform.

Contributing to this fundraiser is one of the ways that you can help me. My ultimate goal is to open my studio.

It is because of people like you that I've been able to make it thus far.

Thank you for caring.

N.B.: below are images of my finger and its possible movements at the moment. The top joint is still swollen and the cut next to it very tender. If I knock it on something it stays in place (not wobbly) but it hurts. Depending on what I do, I use bandage to protect it.
