Support My Journey to Walk Again. Grade 3 Avulsion Injury.

Hey guys. It’s Dorothy but many of you know me by Ticia or DolphinFly. Unfortunately, I had an accident on February 14, 2025. I slipped and fell on some ice, both of my legs went in opposite directions and I heard something snap. I couldn’t move, couldn’t crawl nothing. It was 17 degrees that day and I laid in the snow for 45 minutes yelling for help almost to the point of hypothermia. Then out of nowhere a lady pulled over asking if I needed help, covered me with her coat as I laid there crying and called the ambulance for me. I thought I was paralyzed. They did EKG’s, Ultrasounds, Cat Scan, Checked for Pulmonary Embolism (blood clots), X-Rays and MRI. Three of my muscles came completely off of the bone of my hamstring and detached from the femur and pelvic, which also caused my sciatic nerve and tailbone to be exposed. It’s mentally taking a toll on me because I’m use to my independence. I’ve been on bed rest for 3 months now, waiting for the scar tissues and ligaments to heal before I can start physical therapy. I’m not able to walk, drive or work at the moment. And I still have 5 more months of recovery time to go. I’m still in excruciating pain, and taking 12 medications on top of my Epilepsy. Hopefully, I’ll be able to start physical therapy in April. My surgeon said that my recovery time, at a minimum, is expected to be anywhere from 4-6 months depending on how my body progresses and I’m 5 months in so far. As I await my disability pay to take effect which is a very long process, I really could use your help and support to be able to get the things I need that insurance doesn’t cover. I have all the DME equipment that’s necessary as of now. But I need help with medical bills, outpatient therapy and other medical supplies that I wasn’t able to get on my Amazon Wish List as well as certain prescriptions that weren’t covered. I want to Thank each and every one of you in advance if you’re able to donate. I truly appreciate your kindness and compassion and I am forever grateful. ❤️‍❤️‍ God Bless Us All…. If you prefer to donate via Cash App instead due to the fee my handle is: $DolphinFly7
