Hi.

My name is Sue Silvano and I am fundraising for myself. This is so difficult for me and I'm embarrassed to have to ask but I need the help so here I am. Those who know me well know I help anyone I can, but it makes me sad I can't help myself.

 

The funds would be used for several things. Some will go towards trying to get a car. My mechanic told me my car is extremely dangerous to drive and repairs were going to be expensive. Go home and park it. And I desperately need to get to to my many Dr appts especially for my critical heart and lung issues. I'm now on oxygen. The CDTA bus is ok for planned appts but I tend to have same day appts. I don't want or need anything fancy just something to get from point A to point B. Medically I also need to pay my ambulance bill from when I had my medical crisis on March 18th which is a big expense. I'm lucky to have good prescription coverage but I need a little help with copays on occasion

 

 

 

Secondly, I need to see a dentist. My two front teeth on the bottom snapped of from a carrot and are now crumbling and are close to the gum. I also lost a crown that I need redone. I don't have dental insurance. I can't afford it on social security disability. Sorry for the graphic teeth pictures. 

 

Thirdly, I need to get a small air conditioner for my bedroom. Its hard to breathe in the summer without one. My lungs and heart have critically high pressures and I also have pulmonary hypertension.

I also will be having bariatric surgery at the end of May. I've been working hard to get to this point in my life.  I would use a portion of this for bariatric vitamins and protein shakes and powder, all of which are expensive.

 

Your support will mean the world to me. I will be grateful for whatever you can give. If you can't, prayers are appreciated. Please share my post if you are comfortable doing so. When I'm able I will certainly pay it forward. I'm sorry this is so long, I've never been able to do things short and sweet.
