My name is Denise, and I’m reaching out for support as I recover from surgery on my left shoulder. Before my injury, I worked cleaning and preparing hospital rooms—a job I took pride in, knowing I was helping patients and staff every day. Unfortunately, since my surgery, I haven’t been able to work at all. I’ve been out of work since April 1st, 2025, and the loss of income has made it extremely difficult to keep up with everyday essentials.

Right now, I’m struggling to pay for rent, groceries, and food while I focus on healing. I’ve tried to get by with a little help from friends and family, but everyone around me is facing their own challenges, and I don’t have any steady support. The medical bills from my surgery have only added to the stress, making it even harder to stay afloat.

I’m asking for help to cover my basic needs and medical expenses while I recover and work toward getting back on my feet. Any support will go directly toward rent, groceries, and paying down my medical bills. Your kindness will make a real difference in my life as I navigate this difficult time and focus on healing.
