Hello, my name is Mariah Powell. I am initiating this GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for my monthly expenses during my upcoming surgery. Following an unexpected visit to the emergency room on Thursday night, I was informed that I require surgery on Monday the 2nd, which has not provided sufficient time for me to prepare financially. I unfortuntly do not have any pto. As a single, hard-working mother, I have recently obtained a second job, but my recovery will delay my start date. I would be grateful for any assistance, as my primary concern is falling behind on my rent and car payments/emergency room/surgery bills. I am hesitant to ask for help, but I would truly appreciate any kind of support.
