My name is Chloe-Mae, and I’m reaching out during a challenging chapter in my life. Earlier this year, I underwent jpouch creation surgery on January 12, which required me to use all of my work benefits to get through the recovery. Now, I’m preparing for another major surgery—an ostomy reversal and hernia repair—that will take place within the next week or two. This means I’ll be unable to work and will not receive any income for the next 5-6 weeks.

While I focus on my health and recovery, I’m facing the reality of ongoing bills that can’t wait—rent, electricity, food, and oil. The thought of not being able to cover these essentials while I heal is overwhelming, and it’s a situation I never expected to find myself in.

Your support would mean the world to me. It would allow me to recover in peace, without the added stress of wondering how I’ll keep up with my bills during this time that’s out of my control. Asking for help is not easy for me—I’m used to handling things on my own—but right now, I truly need it. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference and is deeply appreciated. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for considering helping me through this difficult time.
