Hello.

I am having to recreate my original campaign because of some issues. I am still requesting anything you can do. Be it a donation, a share, or a kind word. It all matters.

I think that I have been hesitant to redo this campaign because of the ramifications it could have on me. I am, if nothing else, a very outspoken person. I will always speak the truth. I am also a human being, and that very fact alone makes it so much harder to express what my life has become.

I have experienced the most profound hurt by someone who I loved. I have been made out to be a liar about this hurt. I am also sick. I was harmed by someone who was supposed to love me on 4/27 & 4/28 this year. That, unfortunately for me, was part of my life at the time. Had the court not stepped in, it would likely STILL be my life. I was quiet for a year and a half. This time it was completely out of my hands, as I was in the Emergency Room. That experience, as horrible as it sounds, wasn’t the worst thing I’ve had to endure in the past several months. Not a month later, I learned that I had lung cancer. In an instant, my whole life was turned upside down. I have had lung surgery on my left lobe and the Adenocarcinoma was staged at 1B; however, my right lung is still involved. And with my chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and COPD, options are limited. I want so much to be able to get out of my head and go to a job so I can just get by. My body, however, cannot. I tire so easily and I’m in constant pain from many, many past injuries.

I am asking for some help to get through the next few months as I navigate not only the court system and the pain that comes with the entire experience of being a “victim,” but the ongoing tests, visits, and surgeries that are coming my way. I am grateful that I am able to even write this post. I would love nothing more than to be able to erase the past 2 plus years from my life, but that is not a choice I have.

This is my life. This is but a minuscule part of what I have not only endured, but survived.

I will continue to use my words to express how much I want to survive all of this. I am asking for help as I rebuild a life that was slowly taken from me with broken promises and defective genetics.

I need help financially to get back on my feet, to pay bills, and hopefully get a reliable vehicle so I can get myself to appointments, the pharmacy, and grocery shopping.

I have never been more humbled than I am today. I appreciate any support you can offer.
