Hello everyone! Anyone who knows me well knows that I've been in perimenopause for 8 years now, and it's been a living nightmare. I've muddled through with hormone therapy and grit, but I've reached a point where that isn't helping. For the past year, I've bled almost non-stop. I've been checked for cancer, polyps, endometriosis, fibroids, and everything else. Nothing is wrong; we just can't stop the bleeding. My only recourse now is a full hysterectomy. Unfortunately, I can't cover my deductible. I need a little help. It's not much, but not much is relative, and my relatives are all broke too. Anything helps at this point. Austin's job has been slow, and paychecks have been small. Savings is drained, and I have 2 good jobs waiting for me after recovery. Thank you for taking the time to read this and donating. I hate asking, but I really need this surgery. I had to get in fast, so it's scheduled for December 16th. I never realized Santa brought surgeries, but here I am. Merry Christmas, everyone!
