Writing this is incredibly hard, I have always had trouble asking for help and am always insistent on taking care of everything on my own.

Over the past year, I have had an up and down battle with health issues arising, and despite doing everything I can to keep going, my health recently took a turn. I’ve now been in the hospital for over quite a few days and had to undergo emergency surgery—something I never expected or planned for.

This hospital stay and surgery alone will leave me with medical bills exceeding $5,000, and that doesn’t include the follow-up appointments I’ll need as I recover. I’ve also been told I’ll need to see a specialist to address issues involving another organ, which means additional care and expenses ahead.

I’m continuing to do my best to stay strong, heal, and get back on my feet, but the financial stress and anxiety on top of everything has been overwhelming. I’m asking for support to help with medical bills and essential expenses so I can focus on recovery instead of constant worry.

Any donation of any amount, share, or message of encouragement truly means more than I can express. All of the donations will go directly towards any medical current and future medical bills. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any kindness you’re able to offer. I’m deeply grateful.
