Support Tess's Journey to Recovery

Support Tess Through Her Healing Journey

Tess is a loving mother of three beautiful children, a devoted partner, a daughter, sister, and a friend who would do anything for the people she loves. Since she was a teen, Tess has battled constant, debilitating pain—chronic migraines, severe fatigue, and pain throughout her body that have made even the simplest tasks a challenge. Even wearing certain clothing puts her in excruciating pain. Her journey has been long and full of unanswered questions, but after much struggle and perseverance, she has finally received a diagnosis: Chiari 1 Malformation and Syringomyelia.

While this diagnosis has been a relief in some ways, Tess’s road to recovery is far from easy. In just two weeks, she will undergo a craniectomy surgery and a depression of her cerebellum to help alleviate her condition, but the recovery process will take time. Doctors estimate that Tess will be out of work for a minimum of 30 days.

We are starting this GoFundMe to help cover the costs of her surgery, as well as living expenses while she is unable to work during her recovery. Tess has always been the first to help others, and now it's our turn to support her. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a world of difference to Tess and her family as they navigate this challenging time.

Thank you for taking the time to read her story. Your support, whether through a donation or simply sharing this campaign, means the world to us. Together, we can help Tess focus on healing and getting back to being the amazing mother, wife, and friend she’s always been.
