Hello to all friends and family, near and far. It's not easy for me to open up about my struggles, but recent events have taught me the importance of vulnerability and reaching out for support.

This week, I received life-altering news that I'm still trying to come to terms with. It's a tough pill to swallow, and I find myself grappling with this new reality. As they say, it's time to face the music. I've been confined to bed rest by the hospital specialist for the next seven months or more due to internal bleeding, leaving me unable to work. For those who know me, you understand how hard it is for me to stay still. It's a trying time, but I'm hopeful that my youth and good health will aid in a speedy recovery. Only time will tell.

In light of this unexpected turn of events, I find myself in a position where I must ask for your help to cover my essential expenses while I'm unable to provide for myself. A recent substantial expenditure on my dear dog Annie's surgery has left me financially depleted. It's never been easy for me to ask for assistance publicly, and it pains me to do so now. But desperate times call for desperate measures. To those who generously donate, please know that your support means the world to me. I'm not sure how I would manage without your help, especially since I currently require assistance for daily tasks such as showering and am confined to my bed.

My monthly expenses are over 3k, that is housing and my expenses with food, Annie, meds, toiletries, midwife, etc.

Thank you, thank you, thank you from the depths of my heart.
