Support Stephanie Chaiphum's Recovery Journey

Donation protected
My name is Stephanie Chaiphum. On August 18th, I broke my right ankle on both sides while video recording my stepson’s birthday party. The wheel of my skate got caught on a lifted piece of carpet and brought me down, breaking my tailbone and snapping my ankle on both sides (Bimalleolar Fracture). I was soft casted twice, and unfortunately, by the time a surgeon looked at it, mine was diagnosed as unstable. I had to have emergency corrective surgery on Oct 28th. They had to saw through my ankle and reset it with plates and screws.

It’s already been a month and a half, and now because of this surgery, I am bedridden and looking at another 8+ weeks to 6 months of recovery.

This has taken a major toll on our family and my business. My husband, 2 kids, 2 huskies, and my cleaning company are all affected. Obviously, I cannot walk, so I have had to cancel all of my accounts. My husband works so hard, but it’s impossible for him to handle everything with no support network. In this economy, one income doesn’t cover the cost of living, and one vehicle doesn’t get everyone where they need to go. We often have to Uber the kids to school or my husband to work. Our vehicle now needs a timing chain, and I don’t know how long it’s going to hold up the way it is.

We desperately need help covering bills, vehicle maintenance, medication, doctor’s appointments, food, etc.

I am actively looking for a legit work-from-home job to supplement my income in the meantime. If anyone has suggestions, please let me know.

It’s really hard to reach out for help and I should have done so sooner. Anything counts . My family appreciates you!!!

Sincerely,
The Chaiphum Family
