<div>Hello everyone, my name is Shizu!

</div>

<div>I'm a VTuber and content creator who streams on Twitch.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Why I'm Making This GoFundMe</strong>

</div>

<div>I'm creating this GoFundMe because my medical expenses, which have been building up since early last year, have reached a point where I can barely keep going. Every month feels like a struggle to survive, and the constant stress of possibly losing everything has become too much to handle alone.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>How Things Got to This Point</strong>

</div>

<div>For years, I struggled with severe breathing issues caused by a bone spur in my nose that blocked around 80% of my airflow. In late 2021, I had surgery to fix the issue. For the first half of 2022, things finally felt normal. I could breathe, sleep, and function like a completely different person. Life became manageable again, and I felt hopeful.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Unfortunately, not long after my birthday that year, the problem returned. When I went back to my doctor, they told me the initial surgery had only provided a temporary fix. They admitted they weren’t confident they could fully resolve it at all.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>After finally experiencing what a normal life felt like, it was incredibly difficult to go back to constant exhaustion and pain.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Toward the end of 2023, with help from my community, I moved across the country to an area with better access to specialists. Thankfully, that part worked out. I was able to get the breathing issue properly treated.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>However, right after that, I discovered that my new apartment had a serious black mold problem. Because of my asthma and the fact that my nose was still healing, it caused severe health complications. Around the same time, a doctor took me off medications that I still needed, which only made things worse.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>After losing access to those medications, I began experiencing stress-induced pseudo-seizures that seriously impacted my life. I tried my best to manage everything on my own while still recovering, but the combination of surgery costs, constant doctor visits, and complications with care quickly became overwhelming.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Eventually, my health declined to the point that I had to visit the emergency room.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>When Things Started Spiraling</strong>

</div>

<div>This situation didn’t start all at once. It began with the nose surgery, which led to the black mold exposure, which then triggered seizures and further complications. I had also been covering the costs of my 2.0 model and the unexpected move due to the black mold, which had heavily affected my finances.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>But just as I was starting to feel like I could catch up, my income dropped drastically. It was a mix of the toll on my physical and mental health, and the added stress from personal issues that surfaced online in the past few months.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The debt kept building, and I started to feel like there was nothing I could do. 

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Why I Need Help Now</strong>

</div>

<div>I’ve reached a point where I can’t continue to carry this alone. This GoFundMe is my way of asking for help to finally break out of this cycle so I can focus on healing and rebuilding without being buried by debt and the stress of losing everything.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you so much for reading. Whether you’re able to donate, share, or just send support, it means the world to me.
