Hi guys, it's Lisa here. I am hoping to get some financial help to support my rehabilitation and recovery from a long-standing repetitive strain injury in both of my arms that stems from a neck injury I endured in a car accident as a baby. It's been especially debilitating over the past year to the point that I've not been able to take care of my basic needs. My mom has been here in St. John's with me for the past year helping me with daily tasks and so much more. It's been a very scary situation.
I feel I have found the right road to recovery with two amazing practitioners and it feels crucial that I'm able to continue to see them on a regular basis until I'm healed. I really want my life back.
The funds are mainly going to be used for my therapeutic appointments, along with day-to-day support like some groceries, gas money - things like that - as I'm not able to work and I don't know how long it will be until I'm back at it.
Thank you so much to the people who have already sent me support privately -I'm so touched by the kind words and generosity that is hard to articulate.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for showing me that it's OK to ask for help as it's become clear to me that this is part of my healing as well.
