Mama Shelley’s Recovery Fund

Donation protected

Hey, y’all!

My mother, who has been like an aunty/mama in so many ways to many of y’all, is about to have spinal surgery. She’s been out of work since March 12th because of chronic pain and loss of mobility and balance in her legs. With the help of my little brother and a walker, she’s been getting by, but things have been getting harder with the COVID crisis.

Because of her inability to work, my mom is about four months behind on rent and the threat of eviction is looming.


Recently, her doctor determined she has bulging discs in her spine, as well as pinched nerves from injuries in two of her vertebrae. Her doctor decided that surgery is the best option to relieve her of pain caused by these injuries, as well as for her disc issues. There are no guarantees that my mom will be relieved of her pain, or have any mobility restored.


Recovery will be difficult, and the site of the surgery will make it so she cannot have solid foods for a while.


This fundraiser is to help my mother gain a small amount of stability while she is healing from her surgery. It will cover her back rent, rent for 3 full months, as well as her bills and a small amount extra for food . My mother’s main caretaker is my younger brother, and I’d like to make sure their pantries and freezer are full.


If you know Mama Shelley personally and would like to give some IRL support, please DM me through social media 

I will be loosely organizing grocery runs, medication refills, and similar errands for Mom, so help like that is appreciated.

any updates will be posted here! 

Thanks for your time, and for your love!
