Hi, my name is Jessie, and this is really hard for me to ask. I was injured at work and have been in pain since. I haven’t been able to return to work, and my workers’ compensation payments have been delayed. Right now, I’m stuck in limbo—healing, attending appointments, and waiting for decisions that are out of my control.

The uncertainty has been overwhelming, and every day brings new challenges. I’m doing everything I can to stay positive and focus on my recovery, but it’s difficult when I don’t know how I’ll cover my rent, food, and bills. I’ve reached out to resources and am following all the steps required, but the process is slow and stressful. My family and friends have been supportive, but their help can only go so far.

Any support—whether through a donation or simply sharing this—would help relieve some of the stress while I focus on healing. Your kindness would mean the world to me during this difficult time. Thank you so much for reading, for caring, and for any help you’re able to give. I truly appreciate it more than I can say.
