Hello Friends and Family,

On 11/7/2025, I was taken to the hospital for some pretty severe abdominal pain and trouble walking. I was fully expecting them to tell me it was an issue with my Endometriosis and send us on our way, but instead, I was admitted that night with a variety of issues, including

Enlarged spleen

Free fluid in my abdomen with some ovarian cysts that had ruptured, and fibroids

Gastritis

SMA

Malnutrition and dehydration

During my stay in the hospital, I had a small bowel enteroscopy done, and while under, they also placed a feeding tube, which I will be on for the foreseeable future. I had numerous scans and x-rays done which showed I had some irritation and some sign of disease in my stomach, as well as narrowing of the discs in my back, a slight hip displacement on both sides and a bunch of tears in the ligaments in my right hip which would explain the pain in walking, and I will be having surgery in the next few months to repair it.

I was placed on a Hospital at Home program where I’m able to run my feeds, receive medications, and care from nurses at home instead of the hospital, and soon to be moved to a home health program while they try to figure out the source of the abdominal pain and a treatment plan moving forward.

I am unfortunately not able to leave home or go to work during this time and need assistance gathering half of my rent payment. I have reached out to as many assistance programs as possible but haven’t had any luck, and have applied for disability, but don’t have my meeting until 12/22/25.

All funds raised will go towards my rent, and anything left will go towards other bills, medications, or groceries. This has been one of the hardest, scariest seasons I’ve gone through, and I greatly appreciate all the love and support I’ve received during it. Thank you in advance for the help, even if it’s just a like or share.

Much Love,

Lily.
