Help Through Surgery and Healing

Donation protected

I’m laughing now, but in just more than a week, I will be fresh out of surgery. Unless they give me the really good stuff, I won’t be laughing then!

After years of use and pain, I’m getting a total reverse shoulder replacement of my left shoulder. This will be my third big surgery, including breast cancer surgery and treatments, in just over 2 years. I can no longer work in my field as a chef and during the recovery process I will struggle just and cook and care for myself.

My savings is nonexistent, and I won’t be able to do much of anything during the recovery process. My needs are not great; I’m just looking for a little help to get through winter, the holidays, and into the new year. I’m hoping that this surgery will help me become more productive and self-reliant.
Your support will help me through a lengthy healing process and to be safe and secure during my recovery.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
