Friends and family,
I need your help
I had an accident last week, I fell in my apartment and broke my wrist. Ninja and l had a park walk planned, I showered & lotioned up like any woman in the dry, March Colorado climate. My foot got caught in my duvet cover, I tried to catch myself as I fell backwards, landed on my wrist, I heard the snap (!) felt searing pain, I knew it was bad. Savannah was at work I grabbed an ice pack and called my neighbor who took me to the ER.
I thought I would get a cast and get sent home, however, X-ray showed I crushed my wrist; it is severe and I need surgery. In the ER I was given a hematoma blocker, the on staff ortho performed a reduction (painful and traumatic).
Surgery has been scheduled for Thursday March 16th.
To make a tough situation more difficult, I have been furloughed from my job since the end of January. Thankfully I am still covered by insurance but I am out of funds. I cashed out my PTO to cover bills, I've used almost all of my savings, the hustling I have been doing up until this point has come to a crashing halt due to my injury.
I'm scared you guys, I've always been able to hold it down. And I'm not sure how to get through this without the help of my community. I need help. It's refreshing and terrifying to say that out loud. I need help, I can't do this on my own. I've gone as far as I can go, If somewhere along the line I have helped you, encouraged you or inspired you, I'm hoping you will be willing to do the same for me.
My hope is to have this surgery and not have to worry about how I'm going to pay for my life. To heal without stress; get back into the ring and fight the next couple of rounds. I still have a job, our start date keeps getting pushed back. I just need to get through this set back.
Thank you for reading this, for your support, thank you for loving me. Anything you can donate to the cause would be deeply appreciated.
Thank you for holding me up when I'm down.
I love you
