Hi everyone,

Nearly five years ago, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition that has deeply impacted my health and daily life. Since then, I’ve been undergoing treatment in Tulsa, but unfortunately, the treatments have not been successful in managing my condition.

After years of searching for answers and navigating this difficult journey, I’ve been referred to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota for a second opinion and the hope of finding new treatment options that could improve my quality of life. This is a crucial step forward in my care, but it requires travel, time, and financial resources I’m struggling to manage on my own.

My appointment is scheduled for early June, and I will likely need to stay for several days depending on what tests and evaluations are needed. Thankfully, my brother—who has been an incredible health advocate and support system for me—plans to travel with me to help through the process.

As many of you know, the cost of travel, lodging, meals, and other unexpected expenses can add up quickly. That’s why I’m reaching out to my friends, family, and anyone who’s followed my health journey over the years. If you're able to donate or even just share this post, it would mean the world to me.

Every bit of support helps more than you know — not just financially, but emotionally too. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and for being part of my journey toward healing and hope.
