HELP SUZANNE BATES FIND PEACE AND BETTER HEALTH IN FLORIDA

Donation protected

Hello. My name is Suzanne Bates and this GoFundMe would help me exponentially in getting to Florida. It has been a dream of mine for 5 years to do this and now has to be the time. Although I wish I could say it's only for a better change of scenery/weather, that wouldn't be the whole truth.


I was diagnosed with a very serious heart condition 2 years ago and I have a finite amount of time left on this earth, and it's not going to get me to old age. I wish to be in my happy place when I pass, and besides that, I have not been happy with the doctors here in Ohio. I have several autoimmune conditions also, and the doctors here are choosing to "band-aid" my symptoms instead of trying to find out the root cause. So, I have decided to contact some other doctors that I have heard are good in Florida. I also, just recently, had a major family issue/change and being in Ohio keeps me from attaining a healthy mental state in order to be a productive member of society, as well as put up a good fight against my illnesses.


I gave up my rental house here, and because of unforeseen circumstances, some of the funds I had saved for the down payment/security deposit have been used on a sick dog and someone to help me move. I have tried to sell most everything I own on Marketplace, but there has been no interest. I only have one more week here in Ohio and if I do not have the funds, I will be without a home.


It would greatly humble me if you have read this far and are able to donate. I was very reluctant to do this, but I am in a desperate situation. I do have a job lined up when I get down there, and I can pay it forward if you could find it in your heart to help me out.
