My name is Cailin, and I’m reaching out for support as I recover from a partial knee replacement. This surgery is essential for me to regain my mobility and return to the life I love, but right now, I’m unable to walk or stand for any length of time. That’s made it impossible for me to work or even travel, and I’ve had to step away from my job as a theatre receptionist in Manhattan—a role I truly enjoyed and where I miss my coworkers every day.

During this three-month recovery, I’m focused on healing and regaining my strength so I can get back to work, help my family at home, and start living fully again. Unfortunately, my unemployment benefits have run out, and I’m struggling to cover basic expenses like rent and groceries. This has been a difficult time both emotionally and financially, but I’m hopeful that with your support, I can get through this period and return to the community and work I care about so much.

Your help will make a real difference in my recovery and my ability to move forward. Thank you for considering a donation or sharing my story. Every bit of support brings me closer to getting back on my feet and back to the life I’ve been missing.
