Hi my name is Kris and I'm fundraising for our home repairs, food lost and most importantly the mountains of growing medical bills. I feel like we have the worst luck around. I made the mistake of telling my husband that 2023 was going to be a good year and one of good health for us.

Last Wednesday Los Angeles had the "bomb cyclone"... horrible winds and rain. Thursday morning our entire lives changed. A 60+ year old tree fell on our house. Unable to get out the back door my husband squeezed between the door and the fallen tree. He was able to reach the garage and get some loppers to prune it away when he started having chest pains. Luckily the neighbors had called the fire department and had arrived when I told them about the chest pains. They immediately called the paramedics, ran multiple ekgs, didn't like what they saw and immediately took him to the hospital. After an angiogram they determined my husband would need open heart surgery, 5 days later he had a quadruple bypass. Sadly he had some complications but made it through so far. He's still stuck in icu for a couple or so more days. What's crazy is, I thought I was the only one with heart problems and then this surprised us.

We lost power for 5 days, all the food went bad in the freezers and fridge. The tree did alot of roof damage, rain gutters were ripped away and torn off, huge holes in the stucco and paint damage. The list is endless, the bills are incredibly overwhelming, now waiting for ambulance bills... I'm terrified of what's next, scared another tree is going to fall on our house... the clean up alone with fibromyalgia, chronic pain and recovering from a broken foot (surgery) is at times beyond challenging.

My husband lost his job when covid hit and since then he's had 2 arm surgeries, 2 knee replacements, 3 eye surgeries and now a quadruple bypass. I have been working 2 jobs 6 days a week, sometimes 7 just to try and make ends meet. I've considered getting a 3rd job but don't think my heart can take it. I feel like I'm drowning, no end in sight and at times, alot of times just want to give up. The house is falling apart around us, our one car died a few months ago and now can't afford to even run the heat in the house.

It's extremely awkward asking for help, but my friends encouraged me to try. So even if one can't help the help of prayer and encouragement will help!

May God bless and thank you for your time!
