Recovering From Surgery and Job Loss
Donation protected
As most folks know, back in September, I had a severe ankle injury that requires surgical repair. On May 16, 2025, I’ll be going in to get the joint scoped out and at least one of the major ligaments repaired. The recovery is expected to be at least 3-4 months and the first 6-8 weeks with no weight bearing whatsoever.
Many folks have reached out to ask if there was anything they could do to help, which I appreciate greatly. My biggest struggle at the moment is during all this, I was laid off my job and the injury/surgery has made it extremely difficult to secure a new one until I recover. I’ve been managing with my personal business ventures to get by, but I cannot keep up with the same work I’ve been doing while I recover.
So I’m putting this out there, if you’d like to help out are able to do so, any little bit is appreciated. If there are ways you’d like to help and support that isn’t financially, based, please reach out to me directly. Even just the emotional support and encouragement from everyone has meant the world to me.
No pressure on this or anything, if you can help in this way, great! And if not, great! I appreciate you as well.
Thank you all ❤️
