Support Kelli's Journey to Health and Financial Stability

Hey there! I'm Kelli, and I'm grateful you stopped by my GoFundMe page. I'm an author, a sister, a daughter, an ex-wife, and a Dog Mom! I am asking for funds because I have lost over 150 lbs. since June 2023, and without proper treatment, I will continue to lose weight, causing more and more problems. Looking at the pic I put on this campaign, you can see the drastic change. Y'all, I wish I could eat, I truly miss food, but I have a stricture in my stomach, causing me to only eat just a little bit each day without getting sick. The Doctors are trying to open up where the stricture is located, however, that involves having an endoscopy once every 2 weeks in order to try and stretch the place so that the stricture isn't so debilitating. Unfortunately, this will be a part of my life from now on. And you can't just go in on one endoscopy and open it all the way, or it will cause the structure to snap back and, I would be starting back at one. I have fallen at least 70 times this year alone, due to the weight loss, and this causes me to suffer extreme neurological issues. I can't tell you how often I've had to call 911, how much my vision has changed due to falling and hitting my head, have had multiple concussions, and I'm literally covered in either bruises or scrapes/cuts/abrasions from head to toe, my memory has decreased significantly, I forget words, and I am so unsteady on my feet that I am having to use a walker wherever I go.

At this point, I am unable to work, and therefore I have lost my health insurance, and have no income, which means the endoscopies have stopped because I can't pay for them. They're expensive since I have to have them done in an outpatient surgery facility due to the fact that they have to put me under light anesthesia in order to do the procedure.

My urgent needs are funds to help with rent (July and August), utilities, car payments, and car insurance. I am working on a long-term solution but could use your help in the interim.
