Hello, my name is Portia Hunter and I'm a visual artist from Atlanta, GA. I love going to art shows and various events, spending time with my family and friends, and traveling when I can.
Unfortunately, while I was celebrating a friend's birthday, I fell and broke my ankle in 3 places. It's the first time I've broken a bone. It was a pretty terrible experience, but it got worse later dealing with the pain, discomfort, and having the patience of being confined and not being able to do much for myself. I ended up having a few complications and found out I need to have two surgeries.
I had just come from a vacation a week before this happened, so with doctor bills, emergency room visits, surgeries, and later physical therapy, I won't be able to afford most of it, especially since I will be out of work for 3 months. I am hoping for some much-needed assistance with medical bills I've had to pay as well as upcoming ones. So I'm calling out to my friends, family, coworkers, and whoever feels called to help support an artist who just wants to be able to keep creating and moving.
Thank you very much for taking your time to read this and if you cannot donate, please consider sharing. That would be much appreciated and just as helpful!
Good day and well wishes,
Portia
