Index Finger to be Amputated, Thumb already gone
Donation protected
Hello again everyone! Unfortunately I am back with another Go Fund Me request. On Feburary 15th I had my thumb amputated, as you all saw from the last photo, the lack of circulation basically killed my thumb. Since then I have been waiting to hear my suregon's decision on wether or not I'll need a skin graft to close up the wound. After a 6 week wait and day after day of doing gauze wraps my surgeon decided I do need a skin graft. Honestly I was okay with the decision as I was just ready to get the wound closed and finally put this all behind me. But yesterday I got thrown another curve ball. The surgeon that is going to do the skin graft told me that the safest and most efficient way to do the procedure is to AMPUTATE MY INDEX FINGER. There is another way to do the procedure, but it leaves a large possibility for infection and the need for another surgery. Basically if I were to try to keep my index finger I could end up in more trouble than before. So here I am once again asking for any financial help, as my bills and overall cost of living has put a large dent in the pervious donations. I still cannot work and have been seeing a therapist to help with the depression of everything. I've never been a person to ask for help and this is hard for me to do, but I really don't know how I'm going to make it without some more help from the community. Please find some space in your heart to help me out again. Thank You!
