HELP Teresa Montano defeat Avascular Necrosis

Donation protected
I was diagnosed with Avascular Necrosis of the hip last year weeks prior to Necrotizing Fasciitis which took precedence due to the fatality rate and the fact I was hours from death. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/avascular-necrosis/symptoms-causes/syc-20369859 Due to having to delay this surgery it has gotten worse to the point I will require a Total Hip replacement. As it stands right now I am currently wheelchair bound while awaiting clearance from my Medical doctor as well as my Neurologist. I was diagnosed with Necrotizing Fasciitis 3 weeks ago. It is commonly known as Flesh Eating Bacteria. https://www.cdc.gov/groupastrep/diseases-public/necrotizing-fasciitis.html I have undergone 3 surgeries within a week in order to contain the infection. Fortunately it was caught in time to save my hand and forearm. With the aid of a Medical Vac I have been able to maintain the deadly bacteria meanwhile encouraging new tissue growth. After follow up visits with my Orthopedic Surgeon and Doctor of Orthopedic with Infectious Disease my next step is plastic surgery to replace the skin that was destroyed which will require 1 maybe 2 more surgeries. I am asking for help in anyway to aid in the costs of the medical bills and rehabilitation.
