Health Issues and financial problems

Donation protected
Hello,

I trying to raise money to be able to move outside of the Flint District. The water in Flint is still not good for drinking, and my 3 children and I still have elevated levels of lead in our systems. Doing daily things from cooking to bathing are still a hassle due to the water.

I’d love to move my family into a better part of Genesee County where the water is safe to drink where we can take normal baths, and drink water from the faucet without having to worry about me and my children’s lead level getting any higher.

Also, last summer I was diagnosed with Lupus. Lupus is a autoimmune disease that attack’s healthy tissue in my body and causes major issues that sometimes cannot be reversed. My health continues to deteriorate as I have trouble walking, because of osteoarthritis and now needing a knee replacement, speaking, tremors, memory issues called generalized anxiety disorder, skin disorder, arthritis, asthma, hypertension, carpal tunnel syndrome, kidney disease, and ongoing nervous system damage, because I am constantly in and out of doctor’s appointment and the ER due to flair ups, I no longer work because of what I’m dealing with I never thought despite everything else I am dealing with I would be dealing with a mental disorder, I just want to provide better opportunities for my children.

My health is not good at all, and I just want my family and I to continue to live in a better environment.
