Sonya Dean

My name is Sonya, and I am a disabled woman over 50 who is currently unable to work. I am facing a challenging time as I prepare for surgery to repair a torn Achilles, ligaments, and tendons in my ankle. This surgery is necessary for my health and mobility, but it also means I will be unable to walk or bear weight on my leg for several months. As a result, I am struggling to keep up with my rent and basic necessities, and I am at risk of eviction. After my surgery, I will need several types of durable medical equipment to help with my recovery, including devices to elevate my ankle, a portable toilet seat, and scooters for non-weight bearing mobility. These tools are essential for me to get to my doctor's appointments and physical therapy sessions, which are critical for my healing. In addition, I will need support with daily activities like bathing, cooking, cleaning, and shopping, as I will not be able to manage these tasks on my own during my recovery period. The funds raised will also help me pay my past due rent so I can stay in my home while I heal and focus on recovery. During this difficult time in my life, your support will make a tremendous difference. Every donation will help me stay in my home, access the equipment and care I need, and focus on healing and regaining my strength. I am deeply grateful for any help you can provide as I work toward recovery and becoming self-sufficient again. Thank you for being part of my journey.
