Help Jenn Fight and Recover From Endometriosis
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Jenn and I am fundraising for my upcoming medical expenses and a long road to recovery. After years of different medical doctors and debilitating pain (among other symptoms), 2 years ago I finally saw an OB/GYN and GI specialist that took things a step further and I was diagnosed with stage 3 Endometriosis. After exhausting all possible treatments and failing them, conservative measures were getting slim. Within a few months, it progressed to stage 4 and was taking over my uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, bladder and colon. Unfortunately, surgery is the only way to move forward to treat/remove the endometriosis before it spreads more. I am looking at a long road to recovery as the surgeries will consist of a full hysterectomy, bladder resection (removing a portion of my bladder and sewing it back together) and also a colon resection, where they will cut out the unhealthy part of my colon and sew it back together as well. 3 major surgeries, all in one day. As I try to mentally and physically prepare myself for everything that is to come, for the first time we are reaching out for financial help and support through this. They are anticipating a minimum of 7 days in the hospital and up to 5 months off work to recover. I'm very grateful that my fiancé, Andrea, will be able to take some time off work to help me recover as well. Whether it's a dollar or ten, any donations and prayers will be greatly appreciated. All proceeds will go towards my hospital bills, living expenses and aftercare.
