Support Lauren’s Surgery Recovery

Donation protected
I am facing major surgery that will require six weeks of recovery, and during that time, I’ll only be receiving 75% of my salary. I’ve already been struggling to pay my bills, and the thought of having even less income is overwhelming. This situation is something I never expected, and it’s left me feeling anxious about how I’ll make ends meet while I focus on healing.

The funds raised will go directly toward rent, utilities, and groceries. I still need to eat, and so does my roommate and my cats, so every dollar will help us stay afloat during this difficult period. Your support will make a real difference in helping me cover basic needs and reduce the stress that comes with financial uncertainty.

It’s very hard for me to ask for help, and normally I wouldn’t, but this is something I didn’t ask for and I don’t have a choice in. I’ve been in a vice for a while, and it’s going to get so much tighter before it loosens. Any help is appreciated more than I can ever possibly say. Thank you for considering supporting me during this challenging time.
