Justin Needs Your Help: Medical and Living Costs
Donation protected
Hey, hope you and yours are doing well.
Am in a fix: moved back to NYC in part to help my family w some serious health issues as well as to continue performing music (some of you may know I'm a drummer and percussionist), and my audio engineering and stagehand work. Was able to quickly pick up bar work (as so many of us artists often have to do to manage these days) but broke my hand at work (which was NOT union etc and there is no worker's comp available) which has put a pause on music/stagehand/construction/2 handed work. Am struggling to stay afloat while I get med treatment/physical therapy and take care of meals/housework for my family. I've had to manage health insurance issues that have made things even more difficult. I will 100% require surgery and am still sorting that out. It is uncertain what costs will be incurred as of yet.
In the meantime, in order to keep up w rent, bills and basic day to day expenses to stay afloat until I am healed, anything will help. No worries if you can't. It's been hard times for all. I just find myself stuck in a situation that will take weeks to get my own work back. No workers comp from this last gig.
