My name is Jean, and I’m reaching out because I’m facing some of the hardest challenges of my life. I tore the meniscus in my right knee and had surgery to completely remove it because it was not repairable. After starting physical therapy, I felt a horrible pain in my hip. An MRI revealed I had osteonecrosis, and I had to have my right hip replaced as soon as possible. Sadly, the surgery left me in even more pain than before, and although my left hip also needs replacement, I can’t face another surgery after what I went through.

Two years ago, I was involved in a terrible car accident where my car flipped over four times. All because a person came barreling down the turning lane to pass three cars behind me then me she never cleared my vehicle turned rite into me spun me in a 360 with all that momentum my car started flipping over landing in someone's front lawn and having the Fayetteville fire department using the jaws of life to get me out I was 3 minutes away from making it home but I thank God I didn't have a passenger with me, the accident left my neck, back, hips, and knees severely injured, and I’ve been living with constant pain ever since. These health struggles have made it impossible for me to support myself or my family. I can no longer afford my rent, and I worry every day about keeping a roof over our heads. On top of everything, I had to have all my teeth removed and can’t use dentures, so I need implants to eat and feel comfortable again. My stepdaughter just turned 19, and I want nothing more than to help her start her adult life with the independence she deserves.

If you’re able to help, it would be truly greatly appreciated. I would do the same if I was in the position to help in any way. Your support means the world to me and my family, and I’m grateful for any kindness you can share.
