Weight loss Surgery

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Sophia, I am currently 29 years old and reside in the Bay Area. I have created this go fund so I would be able to get my health and physical weight taken care of by the means of Gastric Sleeve Surgery.

For all my life I have struggled with my weight constantly, constantly being bullied for my weight. For the most part, the reason why I haven't been able to lose weight is because of my knees and they both dislocate whenever, wherever. I have tried my best to not let it hinder my everyday life, however, it is now becoming impossible.

I have been working out and doing better with my eating habits, but unfortunately, that isn't enough. I truly hate to ask for any help, as I know a lot of us are struggling but it would mean the world to me and it would change my life drastically. Not only will I be able to do a full workout with my body, the relief my knees will feel and I would be able to get my knees fixed.

My whole life has been put on hold because of my weight and I don't want to continue my life like this. I envision having children one day, happy and healthy so I can run after them. I envision my life doing what I love again, like dancing. I envision my life twenty times better after this surgery because, for the first time, I will have a chance.
Please if you can help, even $1.00 would mean a lot, truly.
I will let you know what the funds will be used for:
The total cost of Bariatric Sleeve Sx: is $5,000.
$1,000 will be an emergency cushion in case I need to stay another night,
extra fee's when I get there and food/drinks.
