Any amount helps! If you’ve ever seen Spacedog and I’s comedy show and enjoyed it, consider tipping us here!

Update: Unfortunately I’m now realizing how long this rehab will take. D-: 

Believe it or not with all the tall circus, stilt, and unicycling stuff I do tripped out on a curb and split my humerus on my dominant arm on 5/19/2022. It required corrective hardware surgery and my whole dominant arm is totally disabled for a long while to come and I am in so much pain.

 

I hate to do this. I’ve always prided myself on being self-reliant and giving back to others who gave towards me. I don’t know else what to do. I took out a loan for my trailer roof recently, I don’t have much savings. I never expected to 100% lose use of my dominant arm stepping off a curb. Mind boggling medical bills are coming, luckily I should be (mostly) insured but I think not totally? Self-employed do not qualify for unemployment, I cannot work, if I have to incur vet expenses for my two dogs I am done for. All my dreams are crushed.

 

I loved working carpentry on my house, plumbing, tree cutting, landscaping, fixing my own cars (I have 2 cars with over 300k on them, I just did a head gasket job 1 mo before this accident). I never put away money for paying someone else for this stuff.

 

I loved doing street juggling/stilt/balance circus/comedy acts and gigs and making people smile. The educational workshops were popular.

 

I loved making and selling functional items from my tiny woodshop 7x12ft.

 

I loved finally working for myself providing real utility/entertainment to people at good rates. My own business enterprises were finally taking off and the future looked so bright and I was making good money doing things I enjoyed. I wish I had gotten some sort of freelance injury insurance.

 

I am very injured for a long while right at the peak of my beginning of my income season. I guess I gambled and lost. Who expects to snap their arm in half on a curb though?

 

If you’ve ever felt I was a friend to you, you enjoyed my comedy, or I helped you please consider making a donation so I don’t have to plunge into debt further and possibly lose my home down the road, it was so hard to just get a ancient single wide trailer of my own. I had to fight for it.

 

I appreciate anything that anyone could do to help. I hate this., I want to make it up to you, I can do no work. I am so sad and worried and crushed beyond belief and feel useless. I was feeling so healthy and in the best shape of my life taking care of my body.
