My name is Olly, and I’m preparing for open‑heart surgery — an aortic valve replacement and a double bypass. It’s a life‑changing moment, and the recovery will keep me from working for an extended period. I’ve been doing everything I can to stay grounded and prepare, but the medical costs involved are more than I can manage on my own.

This surgery includes several major medical expenses — the surgeon, the hospital facility, anesthesia, and the follow‑up care that comes afterward. It’s a lot to carry, and I’m reaching out because I can’t shoulder it alone. Asking for help like this is not something that comes naturally to me. I’ve always tried to handle things quietly and independently. But right now, I’m facing something bigger than I can navigate by myself, and I’m trying to meet it with honesty and dignity.

If you’re able to contribute, share, or simply send support, it truly means more than I can express. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for being part of my support system during one of the hardest moments of my life.
