Aid Needed for Healing and Stability

Take a good look at this photo this was me in 2022. I was attacked in New York City the day after celebrating gay pride from a man who attacked me from behind at the crosswalk and shoved me into the street after I didn’t have an “extra $1 to give him” and I didn’t have any cash on me at all. My arm was completely dislocated and my bone was chipped I’ve already had arthritis in my entire body since I was 16. I had been actively seeing a chiropractor for my out of place spine, muscle knots and neck spasms since I was in the 9th grade 3 times a week for 5 years straight. That eventually turned into physical therapy and many other out of pocket massages and pain treatments. Unfortunately my job as a waitress the job I’ve been doing for the past 11 years involves a lot of physical work, heavy lifting, strenuous movements, tight spaces leaving more room for accidents to occur and so on and so fourth. I have no family and have been the only one taking care of me my entire life so I don’t have any help or anything to fall back on I work as much as possible to get by like everyone else but I live shift to shift. I also don’t drive due to my severe adhd, anxiety and PTSD so walking with the tissue damage with my dislocation for more then 30 minutes it feels like I’m being stabbed in the arm with a giant knife and it’s just going deeper and deeper. I was injured during COVID so it was impossible at one point to be seen by my primary care or any doctor so I could get a referral to see an orthopedic surgeon. I was back to work within 48 hours after the injury bussing my own tables, lifting carrying trays being excessively over worked and denied my legal breaks working 7-9 hour shifts 5 days a week which turned into 6-7 and longer shifts depending on the job when I was on unemployment in part of 2023 after being illegal fired after I reported my former employer for stealing my tips daily for a year and a half I had more availability to be treated however the physical therapists I was seeing did not. I maybe was seen 4-5 times ever, so I kept working and sucking in the pain and I’ve been doing it now for the past 3 years. If people wonder why I’m very different now that’s a good part of it. I’m in pain doing almost everything just taking steps the nerve from ur foot goes to ur shoulder and I’ve been sucking it in for 3 years however this all changed on april 27th of this year after moving to LA last year to start working on my career in music and modeling I was waitressing and helping the girls I waitress with take out the oranges because they were too heavy for them to do it alone so as a gentleman I helped when they asked me to. While trying to attempt to close the dumpster my arm was over extended and ripped apart all the tissue I had spent the last 3 years tryna build up which was still unhealed. This took not only one but both my waitressing jobs from me and I’m left unable to work according to the workmans comp orthopedic surgeon who wants to begin treating me however I’m left with nothing. I’ve been homeless 5 times. Although it’s been almost a decade since then I know what it was like and I never wanna go thru that again. I asked a bunch of people I thought were my friends and I thought cared if they would help me make this go fund me because when my dad died in 2021 and I made one I was attacked for it for literally no reason people turn some of these platforms into a way to bully people further humiliate them and get gratification out of it. This is why I don’t like to even bother asking anyone for help especially because I hate taking from people and I’m used to it but if there is anyone out there at all with a heart and wants to lend a helping hand while I’m awaiting disability insurance so I can start getting treated as I’m ineligible for unemployment it’s to the point where I cannot afford to make it daily to even get treated for my arm as everything I had I put to whatever bills I could cover. I know some of you don’t have much but even if everyone on my friends list sent $5 - $10 that can really go a long way. I would greatly appreciate any help from anyone no one should have to worry about where they are gonna get there next meal. Etc

thank you and keep me in your prayers if you believe the picture putting me out of work is so people know this is real the dates however are just as important being evaluated this is most likely gonna have me out of work for at least a year maybe less if treated faster.

but for now it’s gonna be a long road to recover.
