Help Me Cover Living Expenses & Surgery Recovery

Hi, my name is Shane Pfeiffer, and I’m reaching out for support during a difficult time in my life. Over the past year, my right ankle has deteriorated to the point where I can no longer stand for more than 30 minutes without extreme pain. I’ve been diagnosed with end-stage arthritis in my right ankle, and my left ankle is also starting to worsen.

After exhausting every other option, I have no choice but to undergo surgery to regain mobility and prevent further damage. Unfortunately, this means I will be unable to work for at least 3 to 4 months while I recover. I’ve looked into temporary disability and unemployment, but I don’t qualify for assistance. To make things worse my insurance has denied me leaving me with out of pocket expenses for my surgery being near $30,000. Without an income, I have no way to pay my living expenses and medical bills during this time.

I never imagined I would be in a position where I had to ask for help like this, but I’m out of options. Any donation, no matter how small, will go toward:

- House Mortgage and utilities $900 per month.

- Groceries and daily necessities $500 per month.

- Medical bills related to my surgery and recovery the rest goes to here.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean the world to me. I appreciate any help you can offer, and I’m incredibly grateful for your kindness and support during this challenging time.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story.
