Stand With Me in My Time of Need

Donation protected
I was recently admitted to the hospital for a gastric outlet blockage, and they also discovered that I have a paraesophageal hernia. My stomach is totally in my diaphragm. This has caused me to be unable to eat solid food and severe pain in my chest similar to a heart attack. It has caused a partial blockage of blood flow and could easily block the blood flow altogether, which can lead to tissue and organs dying off. This surgery is critical. I also have another complication to this surgery. I have gastroparesis which will need to be considered during the surgery.I have insurance that will cover my surgery and hospital stay. I live alone and pay my bills. I work two jobs to survive. I will be off 4-6 weeks without pay. I desperately need help paying rent, electric, and car payment. I will also be needing protein drinks to keep my protein up since I will not be able to eat regular food for 4-6 weeks after the surgery. This is not how I want to do this, but it's crucial that I get this surgery before anything gets worse. I am awaiting a surgery date. It could be as soon as this week, or if I have to go to the ER again due to a blockage, then the surgery will be immediately done at Methodist. I do not feel good about asking for help, but I have tried everything else. I have spoken with churches and other agencies that help during times of crisis and have not been able to get help.

If you are able to help me, I really appreciate it. I hope no one feels obligated, but if you can help, it would mean so much to me. If I cannot get some money, I will be evicted and have no place to go. Thank you so much for your consideration.
This is not scam. I have worked hard my whole life always carry two jobs so I don't normally ask for handouts but this is important.
