As most of you know, I was recently involved in a shooting that nearly took my life. I was shot six times — twice in my waistline, once in my chest, once in my abdomen, twice in my arm, and once in my leg. Two of the bullets are still inside me, one right next to my spine. By God’s grace, I’m still here and able to walk.

Right now, I’m unable to work and it’s been very hard keeping up with bills while I recover. This is not easy for me to ask, but I could really use some help during this time. Any support — whether it’s financial, prayers, or simply checking in — means the world to me.

Thank you for being here for me and helping me through this. I love and appreciate each of you.
