Hi my name is Jeffery I will be 40 years old this October. I live in Bowling Green ky. I apologize this is going to be pretty deep and some of what I have to say might be a little graphic but I’ll try to keep it as pg13 as much as possible. 17 years ago June 25th 2005 was the exact date, My girlfriend at the time and I we’re in her ’05 Mitsubishi Eclipse convertible,My girlfriend and I were heading into the city of Kenosha and a Kenosha city bus decided to run a red arrow turning against traffic.We ended up T-Boneing the bus I get projected through the windshield I beat the air bags going off through the windshield so I get thrown and lodged underneath the bus and something under the buss gets lodged in my back and the bus dragged me underneath it for about a hundred yards.i didn’t have my seatbelt on.Where your seatbelt kids!!.The bus driver had no idea I was stuck underneath the bus. I fell into a coma for two years after my second brain surgery I had to learn how to walk again talk again write again that’s where it all started with the addiction to pain medication. like I said earlier I will be 40 years old and I’ve had almost as many surgeries as I’ve been alive. I have had a total of 34 surgeries all over my body, two brain surgeries multiple right knee surgerys. left elbow Reconstructed rods in my back multiple plastic surgeries to my face. I was 20 years old when I got in the accident I never did more than smoke pot a couple times I was 100% against drugs. Now They had me on pain medication that I should have never ever been on. They were given me stage 4 cancer patient medication Dilaudid, Fentanyl morphine suckers etc and that lead into other drugs. Thank God I’m clean today!! Today I am one year four months and 24 days clean. When you become an addict, it completely takes over and turns you into 100% the opposite of who you really truly are. Being a addict that let me into a life of crime. I was incarcerated I was in jail when my mother passed away by far the hardest most painful feeling I ever had to go through. My mother was my best friend my everything. And when my mom died I never knew my real father really I was 5 when he left my sister and I. Yes I have an older sister but she has nothing to do with me from my actions of my addiction. so I have absolutely not a single soul here for me and that leads me to my personal life and relationships. this is where I know nobody really wants to hear or read but I’m trying to be honest and I really need help so. from the ages of six to around 10 or 11 years old I was molested and brutally tortured. He would put cigarettes out on me all over my back, backs of my legs. put fishing hooks in me and I think that’s enough detail, I think you get Point but in my relationships I never well I don’t really have a sex life I absolutely we’re all my scars are from the cigarette burns on my back I cannot be touched on my back I don’t really want to be touched at all and that’s hard for a woman not being able to be cuddled or held I always push people away and now it brings me to Recently a couple months ago we had two tornadoes come to Bowling Green within a week I was renting a house right downtown. As you can see in the pictures that was my house there was a liquor store across the street from my house that’s what the roof of that liquor store is what went into my house everything I own was destroyed or looters took everything that was still of value and like a idiot i did not have renters insurance so absolutely everything of mine did not get replaced My landlord did give me my deposit back and that month’s rent but that went by trying to survive eating etc.Fema did put me up in a hotel for 30 days but that was everything that was me everything that I am during the summer I do landscape design, lawn care. stuff like that during the winter months I’ve been doing my own business with those wonderful stimulus checks that we all got I was able to finally buy all my equipment needed I make and designs steampunk art for those who don’t know what that is I encourage you to look it up. And I’m sorry my girlfriend I was with in the accident she ended up breaking her arm a few ribs but she had her seat belt on sorry I forgot to put that in there but that brings me to why I’m asking for financial help my whole life I’ve always wanted to walk the Appalachian Trail what time is better than now I was hoping to be able to find myself and find happiness I haven’t been in the greatest of places the past couple months not wanting to live stuff like that I don’t feel that way at the moment but set addiction and What happened to me as a child me holding myself there that’s what everything from me I don’t even no who I really am for what I really want but I know I would absolutely love every second of the Appalachian Trail but I don’t have funds for gear and food along the way I just want to find myself what better place to do that than in nature Now I do understand if you can’t donate but all I ask is if you could just say a prayer for me that’s all I need Another thing is used hiking here ultralight hiking here REI outfitter gift cards I’m just trying to do this in the next month or so Actually next couple weeks Today is March 3rd 2022 I’m in Chattanooga Tennessee with $44 in my pocket one more night at a hotel and that’s as far as I got I just had to get out of Bowling Green memories and It was bringing me down so quickly so yeah that is what I am trying to do. Thank you so much for your time. In Jesus name amen.thank you
