Hi everyone, and thank you so much for stopping by.

On July 3rd, 2025, I underwent major knee surgery to repair an osteochondral dissecans lesion in my right knee. A piece of bone had shattered and lodged itself in the joint, locking my knee in a bent position and making walking impossible.

During surgery, my amazing medical team cleared the damaged bone and transplanted bone from my tibia to repair the joint. The operation was a success — but now, the hardest part is recovery.

For the next six weeks, I won’t be able to bear weight on my leg. I’ll be in a brace and on crutches while attending physical therapy twice a week to regain strength, activate muscles, and learn to walk again.

Thanks to early donations, I’ve been able to cover my rent and bills through August, which has eased a huge burden. I'm so grateful. Now, I’m seeking additional help to:

Cover weekly physical therapy costs ($80/week)

Purchase groceries and essentials while I’m out of work

Help with transportation to and from PT

Every donation — no matter the size — makes a real difference in my ability to heal, get back on my feet, and eventually return to work.

If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this with your network — it truly helps more than you know.

Thank you for your support, your kindness, and your belief in my recovery.

With gratitude,

Megan
