Hello to any and all who read this.
Long story short, I’m in desperate need of a hernia operation, which costs $36k. I’ve struggled most of my life and live paycheck to paycheck. Despite this, I’ve managed to own a home and raise an amazing daughter with little to no help.
I’m trying to get affordable insurance, but it seems bleak, as I now have a pre existing condition. I work for a company which builds and paints outdoor courts and is labor intensive. Everyday is a struggle now with this hernia pain. I’m losing hours, making my checks lowl and paying bills is more of a struggle than ever. As I write this, I’m at the job working, doing what I can because I can’t afford to take days off. Biting and fighting back the tears and pain, I do what I can.
I feel as if this rope I’ve been clinging to is giving up. I’ve struggled with depression most of my life and now I can barely get through my day without breaking down. I feel exhausted. This pain on top of my other pains is almost too much to take.
I’ve seen people donate to the silliest things on this site. I desperately need this operation. Please help me. I don’t really have any kind of support system, so here I am depending on the general public. My surgery is scheduled for June 30th, 2025, but I will likely have to postpone it if I can’t afford it. I’m tired, beaten, and begging here.
Thank you for taking the time to read and if you donated, a million thanks.
