I am currently experiencing unexpected medical expenses that has created a significant financial hardship. Over the past several weeks I was hospitalized, had multiple doctor's appointments, testing, medications, and dietary changes related to my health. I need to continue to see a GI specialist but the cost of ongoing medical care has become more than I can manage.             The funds raised will be used to help pay GI specialist appointments, testing, medications, and other healthcare - related expenses so that I may continue the care I need. Receiving proper treatment is important to my health and recovery. It will allow me to keep moving forward instead of delaying necessary medical care because of financial barriers.                                                        Asking for help is not easy, but I recognize that sometimes we all need a helping hand. Any contribution, no matter the amount, will make a meaningful difference. If you are unable to donate, pray and sharing my fundraiser with others will mean a lot to me.                                                                Thank you for your kindness, generosity, prayers, and encouragement. Your support will allow me to continue the medical care I need while I work on my financial stability. I am gratefulnto every person who helps or share my story.
