Help Shannon pay bills and rent after accident!
Donation protected
Hello I am Shannon Walko age 73 and I live with my husband Tom Walko age 81.
My pay is needed to pay bills and rent.
In late September , 2023 I was at work at Saks Fifth dept. store. It was the end of the day. I was putting the shopping carts away.
As I was putting the carts away, I slipped and tripped and falling with both arms straight out so I didn't hit my head but instantly shattered both shoulders. The most painful thing I ever felt.
I had my first surgery in Sept. 2023. It has been a long road to heal enough to get surgery on my Left shoulder in January 2024, this year.
The Dr said I was only the second person he operated on with 2 broken shoulders.
I now have gone through 3 surgeries to repair my shoulders and biceps.
I have had a long year.
It is hard since me working was needed to help pay our bills and rent, even with Social Security.
In August 2024 Saks in Seattle closed.
So now I have no work to go back to. I am looking at hand surgery next. I damaged my hands and wrists too when I fell.
I know an luckier than alot of people on go fund me but I still need help.
I have unexpected medical bills that I am fighting with L &I to pay.
Hospital does not care even if they made a mistake not billing the right people.
I am a loving giving person. This is hard for me to ask for help.
Thankyou for your past help , you are all fabulous people. XOXO
Please let people know about my go fund me.
I thought I would not have to ask again for help but
my injuries are still showing up. Mr. Jinx just is not letting go of me.
If you could spread my go fund me to your friends. I would appreciate it.
