Sarah's medical fund

Donation protected

Hi, my name is Sarah Lennon, I am 38 years old, and am currently disabled due to multiple medical problems. I have been ill most of my life, but more recently my asthma and G.I. problems have become more severe, and life threatening. I have seen multiple specialists, and am currently taking a lot of medications to try and help with these problems, some of which are no longer helping so we are trying everything possible to try and get things better for me. I have also had my gall bladder removed, which had burst inside of me three different times since I was 15 years old until I was 30 when it was removed. They found that this was doing a lot of damage  every time this happened, which caused other problems with my GI system. One year later my appendix burst, and was removed.  I also have allergies, and have become allergic to numerous medications, which makes it even harder to treat me. I've been on a maintenance dose of steroids for quite some time, and although it helps for my breathing problems, it has done damage in other areas. I had to have knee surgery a few months ago, due to the steroids damaging my bones, and now need a knee replacement. I also have problems with my back and my other knee. I also have thyroid nodules now do to radiation exposure, from all the testing I've been put through. My main reason for asking for help, is my esophagus is going to need a delicate operation, and a repair on a hernia, which has been causing severe GERD and aspiration into my lungs. What I am facing is the possibility of four different surgeries to have a better quality of life. I am asking for help with travel, food, lodging, fuel, medical bills not covered, and any medications, or supplies not covered. I have exhausted every avenue in trying to get help with these problems, I have come to the go fund me community, because this is my last resort. I need to meet my goal, as soon as possible,  but my next trip to the hospital is the end of April , and I may  have to cancel a life saving event, due to lack of funds.  I wish to thank anyone in advance for any help and the support you have  given to me!!
