Hi I am Jess,
Thank you for taking the time to read my posting. My life has currently been halted due to serious medical conditions that have haunted me for years, but I did my all to not let it stop me and made sure to give it my all to help others. I have devoted the past 11 years of my life working in the medical field to help my patients and their loved ones navigate through some of the most fragile moments of their lives. Now I have been put in a position where I am in need of help in a way I never thought I would be. I live on my own and have been sick most my life but as of late my disability has reached its peak, causing me to be sidelined, unable to work. On a good day I can get through normal day to day tasks, on my worst day I can barely get out of bed. I have what is called Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) for short. I have done my best to manage my condition for years now, but this year it has reared it ugly head in a manner of attacking my whole body. My license has been suspended due to unmanaged seizure activity, my heart has weekend due to the malfunction of my pacemaker lead being damaged during one of my many studies. So now heart surgery is needed, also with this flare it has triggered severe inflammation and pain within my GI needing intermittent Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) and IV therapy through my Port to help manage symptoms. I have bills that are stacking up & having to choose between what treatment, medication, doctors appointments, scans I can go to because I have to allocate the fixed amount I am living off of , to pay for the never ending medical bills, the outrageously high Uber bill being I am unable to drive and the state of California does not have any suitable program options for people like me with my disability & having a safe clean roof over my head is essential with my disabilities to have a clean & proper place for my medical equipment. The money well is dry. My disability has now amounted to a debt that will take me years to recover from. I do not qualify for any type of loan due to not actively working and being unable to provide a pay stub. In order to qualify for government assistance in any way I would have to be homeless on the streets with nothing before I can sign up for any financial assistance & working is not an option at this time. So I am trying one last stitch effort any & all financial help would be greatly appreciated & a huge blessing. It will help to take one less stress off of my plate while I do everything I can to get the medical treatment I need so that hopefully in the end, I may be able to return to taking care of patients instead of only being a patient. My ultimate prayer & goal would be to reach $100,000 to cover the costs of my apartment rent, all medical scans and tests, treatments, pay my bills and ultimately be able to get the surgery needed to fix my heart, while being able to get the home care help I need. The thought of not having to choose between medication over food, a roof over my head over the countless doctors appointments & treatments needed sounds impossible but then again I believe in the power of prayer & seeking help when truly needed . This is a huge ask I am aware & I am truly grateful for any donation of any amount. Even if you can’t donate thank you for taking the time to read this, may God bless you & thank you again truly.
Sincerely,
Jess
