Support a Brave Family Facing Brain Surgery

Donation protected
Majority of you know me, whether we were childhood friends or we're energetic coworkers. You've witnessed me struggle to try and live life as authentically and genuinely as possible. I truely believe that the meaning of my life is to love others. To show up for them when they think they're alone, to provide a listening ear when they think no one cares what they have to say, and to help carry the crushing weight that life throws at us sometimes. I haven't been perfect, but since I haven't unlocked the secret to immortality or superpowers, I am unfortunately only human. About a week ago my life abruptly came to a halt as doctors informed me of a 6cm tumor in my right frontal lobe. Because of its size and since it's compressing one of my ventricles, I will be having an awake Craniotomy to get the tumor removed in less than a month. I'm not afraid to get my skull opened up so people can look at my brain. I'm not afraid of the big scar I'll have or the pain that will come from healing. I'm not afraid of the risks of surgery either. What I am afraid of is hurting my family. I'm afraid of how much they love me and how scared and stressed they all are. I don't want them to hurt even though none of us can control this. I'm afraid of the bills that will come and how hard it will be to crawl out from under them. We're a family of 5 with 20 animals because we love having a busy and happy home. I won't be able to work for a minimum of 90 days, and adult responsibilities stop for no one. As uncomfortable as it is to ask for help financially, I don't see another option to protect them from the financial burden of my surgery. If you are in a place to help, we would sincerely appreciate it. Any little bit adds up and it will all go towards living expenses and my medical bills. In the meantime, I'll be focused on staying brave for our children, for my little sisters, for my parents and family, and for all my friends. As long as we focus on love, there is nothing to fear. From the bottom of by heart, thank you on behalf of all of us.
