Hey everyone, if you know me, you know I really hate asking for help. But I recently lost my job and, on top of that, I'm about to have total knee replacement surgery on February 5th. This means I won't be able to work or get another job for at least 12 weeks while I recover.

I've been lucky enough to have the family support from HaiJ and Tom, and I have some tax money coming back soon, but it just won't be enough to cover all my bills for three months. My biggest worries are making sure I can keep up with my rent, phone, and car payments while I'm out of work. The thought of falling behind on these essentials is really stressful, and I want to focus on healing without the added worry of losing my home or transportation.

Any amount you can give will help and it will all add up. Thank you so much for considering a donation and supporting me during this difficult time. Your kindness means more than you know, and I am truly grateful for any support you can offer.
