Hi my name Is Crystal Schmidt. Maybe you know me from posting for the past 6 years for returns such as bottles, glass and cans.

people have been saying for me to make a gofundme account for a while now but I have been nervous In doing so for the backlash of others who have put me down for even asking for bottles.

a backstory on me:

I was diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia about 7 years ago. I have been on active chemotherapy medication ever since. Since being diagnosed, I have had to have numerous (5) back surgeries that have limited my mobility due to needing a back fusion on my lower lumbar. I have also needed an ACL and miniscus repair on my left knee after just leaning into my car and it popping out sideways. I am on numerous medications for the side effects I get from my chemo and because of all of these I am on disability.

Even though I am on disability, it doesn’t cover all my bills and also my medical expenses.

I am hoping this will help me pay off some of my bills so I am less stressed out from having all these expenses.

if you can help that would be greatly appreciated.

thank you

crystal
