Hello all. :) Most of u all know me very personally so you may already be aware that I was diagnosed with a brain AVM in my left occipital lobe 2 years ago during a routine test in preparation for my previous heart surgery.  This Brain AVM has grown in size and I have been suffering recent dizzy spells and possibly partial seizures due to this issue.  So here I am 2 years later and in need of Gamma Knife surgery.  Dr. Jude my neurosurgeon says that this type of radiation surgery holds risks but that I need to have this done.  Already the bills from MRIs and my neurosurgeon have been stacking up. I've already cancelled vacation to save money and everything else I can possibly think of but I'm still struggling. I paid for my heart surgery myself 2 years ago but unfortunately I had to use up all of my savings to pay for it so I wasn't expecting to need any other surgery expense so soon. My employer benefits changed so now not only do I have an outrageous deductible before my insurance will even cover anything, but even after I am left owing a huge portion of my treatment. I've never used GOFUNDME so I'm new at this. Ive never asked anyone for money or anything along those lines but if u feel in your heart you'd like to donate a few here or there I would really really appreciate it.  I see people asking for funds for new tires and stuff so I figured why not for this right? Thanks guys! Love yall!
