About this fundraiser

10 years!!! That’s how long it’s been since I began my journey to recovery, but it seems to never end. If it’s not one thing, it’s another.

From life-threatening injuries to chronic medical conditions, I’ve fought through more than I ever thought possible. However, the battles are far from over. I’m now facing upcoming surgeries and procedures that will require significant financial support, and my medical bills have become overwhelming.

For those who may not know, these past ten years have taken me through countless hospitals, specialists, and treatments. Each step forward is met with setbacks that drain my energy and resources. I’ve tried to stay strong, but the mounting costs of care are pushing me to a breaking point.

I’m also the author of Invisible Tears, a raw and deeply personal memoir that reveals my journey through unimaginable hardships. It delves into the childhood trauma and abuse I endured, as well as the life-altering impact of a gunshot wound to my face that shattered my jaw, gums, and teeth. This experience left both physical and emotional scars, but it also became the catalyst for my resilience and determination to overcome the darkest of challenges. Through this journey, I’ve found a calling to inspire and help others who are suffering, which led me to become more involved in mentoring and writing.

I’m currently working on my next book, continuing my mission to make a positive and lasting impact on others. I hope to keep offering hope and strength through my writing and speaking engagements, even as I face my own personal challenges.

Even through the darkest times, when I’ve struggled to make ends meet, I’ve always found a way to help others. I know that this is why God has always helped me in return when I was in need. My faith in Him remains strong, and I believe that He has a plan for me. I’m positive about everything ahead, knowing that His guidance and blessings will carry me through.

That’s why I’m humbly asking for your help. Any contribution, no matter how small, will go directly toward covering my medical expenses and ensuring I can continue the road to recovery without the constant stress of financial burdens. Your support will allow me to focus on healing and not just the bills.

If you know of any other resources or organizations that can assist, please let me know. I am also asking that you spread the word and share this message with anyone in your network who could offer support. Your generosity is deeply appreciated, and I am eternally grateful for every person who has been by my side. With your help, I know I can keep moving forward.

Thank you for your kindness and support.
