Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

I am reaching out today with a heavy heart, as I need your support to cover life-altering medical expenses that have suddenly taken over my life.

In 2022, I was diagnosed with lymphedema, which has changed everything for me. While I’ve always been independent, this diagnosis has left me struggling to manage both my health and finances. The cost of treatment, medications, doctor’s visits, surgeries, and other medical care has quickly become overwhelming.

While I am doing everything I can to stay positive and keep pushing through, the financial burden has become impossible to bear on my own. Insurance only covers a portion of the costs, and as a result, there are significant out-of-pocket expenses that are becoming more and more difficult to manage. Every donation will directly go toward covering travel to and from medical appointments, rent and utilities.

I never imagined that I would be in this situation, but I know I cannot do it alone. Your generosity means the world to me, and no amount is too small. Even sharing this page with your network would be an immense help.

If you are able to help, please know that you are making a difference in my journey toward recovery. Surgery has gone well and I am on the mend, but I am not working or making any income at the moment. I appreciate all of the love, support, and kindness you have already shown, and I am incredibly grateful to each and every one of you. Your support brings me hope, and I truly believe I can fight through this with your help.

Thank you for reading my story, for your compassion, and for your willingness to help. I am so thankful to have such an incredible community behind me.

With heartfelt thanks,

Cody Malins
