<div>I’d like to introduce myself my name is Jason and I’ve been fighting a blood disease for 26 years now that has finally came full circle. Starting March 1, I woke up out of nowhere and have to have dialysis. ..
</div>
<div>I have blood diseases blood infections. I have some very rare infections and diseases that the facilities around here are actually having trouble to keep up with keeping me healthy and everything. I have to stay hooked up to a dialysis machine 24 seven at this point and it’s basically life support. The doctors tell me that I’m pretty much on hospice and that they’re just trying to keep me comfortable until they can try to figure out what exactly is going on. Obviously from the pictures I am completely bedbound. I work with physical therapy. It is extremely difficult extremely painful to do anything or to get out of bed. I have had my share of medical for more than 10 people’s lifetimes. I had a spinal cord injury in 2015 that left me completely paralyzed and on disability which really doesn’t pay a whole lot of my bills. My medical bills and everything else household bills are starting to add up and I’m getting extremely worried about everything able to take care of the things I need to take care of. This was a completely unexpected surprise not that I would put this on my worst enemies at all. I have worked so diligent in my life and yet I can’t seem to get ahead. It’s one step forward and 10 steps back.
</div>

</div>
<div>i’m not asking for the world I’m not asking for $1 million but if anybody is able to help donate in order for me to be able to pay my general bills and my medical bills and everything that’s just piling up by being in here so long mentally and physically it’s taking a toll. So if you can find it in your heart to donate whatever you may be able to help and donate with. It also provides with transportation for family members to bring me the necessities and everything like that, which is also a financial hardship on everybody I understand the times are tough for everybody around. But if you could find it in your heart and make a donation I would be so so very grateful for your generosity. ❤️ thank you all and God bless. !
