Support Heather in Her Health Battle with Lupus

Donation protected
Over the last few years, my health seemed to be dwindling, but I couldn’t really pinpoint the issue. Then, in February, I ended up in the emergency room several times. What seemed like a simple ailment turned out to be something bigger. After dealing with the ups and downs of sickness, new medications, anxiety, depression and so so many tests, I was diagnosed with SLE (Lupus).

I started new medication in April and even more medications in August to help treat some of the symptoms and am also seeing several specialists to help me learn how to manage my disease.

It’s been a really long and rough road that I’m still navigating. I’ve been off work since February and will remain off through at least mid-December, as I focus on longer-term health goals.

I was approved for disability, but that only covers 60% of my wages, so an already struggling financial situation has gotten worse. I need help covering my medical costs that aren’t covered, and starting in October, I’m losing my employer-provided insurance and will need help covering the premium.

I’d also love to explore some additional testing, which is not covered by my insurance and costs about $3,500.00 alone, but could really help me understand what my body needs to get better.

I’ve struggled with even asking for help, but it’s on my heart to be vulnerable in this time. I know that I have a lot of wonderful, loving people in my corner and I know if it were one of you, I’d be supportive in any way I could.

Please be a prayer warrior for me, and if you’re able to give financially, I’m so incredibly thankful.

The stress brought on by this financial hardship is hindering my progress towards better health. And I desperately want to get back to healthy, not only for me, but for my sweet kiddos. They need me (almost as much as I need them)!

If you’re reading this, I love, adore, and appreciate you. And I miss you! Thank you for your support. ♥️
