Hello to those who know me and those who do not.

Recently the weight of my financial burden has become strained beyond my ability to manage. For the past 2 years I’ve lived off $1284/mo. Paying $800 to rent with $484 to pay insurance, buy gas, diapers and wipes, propane for cooking and hot water and basics for my home.

I’ve been on medical leave for 3 years and 4 months from a second spine surgery that didn’t go as hoped. I have a 3rd revision coming in the next few months to remove the screw that’s migrated from my S2 vertebrae into my sacroiliac joint and with the surgery hopefully I’ll be on the mend and back on track in my career by May 2026.

Today I blew a tire on my vehicle. I need it to be able to get to and from my doctors to be able to get the care I need. To be able to do the things I need to for my daughter and I to keep on temporary assistance because my private disability insurance ran out after 2 years. If I can’t make my appointments I’ll lose my assistance, and then the home for my daughter and I, and potentially ruin my timeline for surgery and recovery.

I have to be healed by May to retain my job, which luckily is eager to keep me as an employee and to support me and my goal of attending the pilot training academy upon my successful return.

At the moment I have no money to wash our laundry or even buy diapers and wipes which are getting low, let alone 4 new tires, and work my jeep needs.

4 new tires with installation will be over $1000.

I understand that we’re all feeling the strain right now. I know not many people can give freely of the money they need to support themselves and their goals. If you have something to spare that could help ease the tremendously heavy burden, I would be immensely thankful.

I just don’t know how I’m going to make it through this period without a little help from my friends.

If you are able to give, anything will help right now. Even a dollar or two so I can keep potable water for our daily use, that would make a world of difference for us at this time.

Thank you for caring to read this far.
