Support Nikki's Fight Against Multiple Illnesses
Donation protected
Hi Everyone,
Most of you know me as Norma Jean in the Pinstriping World, or in the Vinyl Community, but my real name is Nikki Root.
I've been diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, Lymphodema, Gastroperisis, Type 2 Diabetes, Non Alcoholic NASH Liver Disease, Digenerative Disc Disease, Hypokalemia, Anemia, & PCS. Im permanently in a wheelchair now, and am getting a port put in soon since I rely on so many IV's that have caused my veins to give out. Im also Oxygen Dependant.
I hate to be writing this at all right now, but times have struck me pretty hard as my health is declining. I've applied for disability but am still awaiting approval. I've been unable to work for months and cannot pay my bills. I applied for Financial Aid Bill Assistance & Unfortunately only get 1 bill paid 1x per year, since the Energy Assistance Program has closed for the year. I need more help than my insurance is willing to provide & my roommate/care giver is having to work extra hours until I can get it approved & my disability granted.
As most of you know, I'm a devout Catholic/Christian & have always worked and am the kind of person to give whatever I can, whenever I can. Being in this situation is tremendously hard on me & I enjoy praying for others in need as it brings me joy & comfort.
Aside from general bills.. I always am in need of prayers, and happy to send prayers to anyone else in need as well, always. Also, funding for transportation to and from Doctor & Medical Appointments, a bed, and a someone that can pay for & install a hitch and wire harness on our vehicle for my electric wheelchair that has leg elevation for my lymphodema in my legs. Aside from that we are in need of a lawnmower or someone that can mow our yard weekly.
Even if you can't donate anything, I thank you for your time in reading this. Also if you are in need of prayers, please do reach out to me. I hope you have a blessed day and stay safe & healthy, NJ.
