Hi everyone.

My name is Oakley, or Oaks (Oakley8Bit) as some of yall know me online. I have been struggling throughout the years, especially this year, with my chronic-illnesses and being able to maintain my employment. I am needing help to get back on my feet while look for a less stressful work environment.

I have FND, along with seizures, Fibromyalgia, asthma (due to past surgeries) and Mixed Connective Tissue Disease. My conditions flare up and are made worse by stress; I recently experienced a seizure at work, where I was then terminated. This came at a surprise and left me with not much options for staying afloat during a difficult time. I am also left with no insurance, having to pay for medications and doctor's appointments at full costs. I would also try to find a lawyer to pursue legal action, however most lawyers in my area still require some sort of payment down, which I cannot do at this time. Right now, I am just needing help to survive.

Anything donated will go towards helping to pay for necessities (food, water, electric), rent, medications, appointments, and emergencies. This will help alleviate stressors off my plate, and help me to find proper employment that will work with my conditions. The last thing I'd want is to trigger more seizures and reset my medical health baseline.

Living with my chronic-illnesses is incredibly difficult without the proper resources and I am at a critical point of losing access and independence.

Anything is greatly appreciated; even resharing/reposting would be incredibly helpful. I appreciate each one of you.

Thank you so much.

-Oaks.
