I’m going to be honest — this is hard to write.

Over the past few months, I’ve been hospitalized with pneumonia, sepsis, fluid in my lungs, and have started dialysis. Because of these complications, I haven’t been able to work consistently and have fallen behind on essential expenses.

I’m fighting to regain strength and stability, but the financial pressure has become overwhelming.

Funds raised will go directly toward:

• Rent and utilities

• Dialysis and medical-related costs

• Medications and oxygen

• Transportation to treatment

• Basic living expenses while I recover

I’m not giving up. I’m doing everything I can to rebuild and support my family. If you’re able to help — even by donating a small amount or sharing — it truly makes a difference.

Thank you for standing with us during this season.
