Emergency Surgery

Donation protected

Hello my name is Echo! 

Thank you for taking the in considering my cry-for help.  As some of you may or may not know I’m am a transgender female, artist, and fulltime student.  Recently I was so excited to have successfully raised and payed for my own breast augmentation surgery to further myself in my ongoing transition.  I was so proud and excited that I was able to do this on my own without anyone’s help or as much transwomen turn to sexwork.  I managed to be a full time student and raise/save the funds needed to pay for the surgery all out. 

Well unfortunately Something terrible has happed.  The thing that most people pray won’t happen happened.  Yesterday on 9/22/20 I wasn’t feeling well.  I began to have a horrible fever and chill my body ached and I couldn’t move.  My body started to go into septic shock.  There was an major infection spreading from my left breast into my back, my ribs, my abdomen and it was spreading quickly.  Luckily I had gone to the Doctor in time for emergency surgery where he disinfected the implant and the area.  

I had to pay $3000.00 for that life saving emergency surgery.  Which was money I had allocated to my household bills including food.  So now find myself in an place where I am scared and don’t know how I can continue to take care.  The surgery has left me bed ridden for the next 10 days so I am unable to work or lift my arms at all for 10 days.  And it’s still not clear if the infection is under control.  The Doctor states tthere is still a severe chance that I will have to take both the implants out completely which Will not only leave me in a place of not knowing how i will pay for the life saving surgery. And not being able to function and earn money to eat.  So I am asking for 10,000 as the surgery to remove both implants will cost me $8000.00 and the other $2,000.00 will go towards rent.  If I can raise more that would be amazing but most important is the implants.  I won’t know if I well need to have them removed till next week.  So I am asking all angels, friends, family, loved ones, and trans supporters to please consider donating every penny counts.  I thank you again for listing to this.  I accept any and all healing energy, prayers, and positive thoughts coming from you all.  

I am An artist so I for the top 3 donors I will be offering 3 art pieces (1 for each) that I will offer to give to you in return for your generosity. 

I am crying as I write this because I’m scared and sad for what has happened.  I’m still in a lot of pain and I know what’s meant to be will be.  I know with this crazy year you may not be able to afford sending hard earned money to a stranger but please consider. I love you all thank you.
