Help Willow Get The Care She Needs

Hi everyone. My name is Meghan and I’m raising money for my friend Willow Curry, an amazing writer and artist who is in desperate need of financial help. For the past four and a half years, Willow has been struggling with chronic oromandibular dystonia, extreme jaw pain and rigidity that has limited her ability to talk, eat, and function. In order to alleviate symptoms she has had to keep using powerful medications with numerous side effects, particularly drowsiness. The medications only relieve symptoms temporarily and are becoming increasingly dangerous to use. She has been in and out of doctors for years now, but none of them have found a concrete cause for her dystonia. Because of her health issues, Willow has been unable to maintain jobs, stay in school, or work extensively on her many ideas and projects. Right now she has no income to see the doctors she needs to get her health under control. As many of you know, Willow lost both her parents to cancer in 2014 and 2017, and has been bravely trying to honor their memory through her various artistic and literary endeavors. However, her health problems have escalated to a point that has made this incredibly difficult. In addition, she was heavily affected by Hurricane Harvey, which flooded her house and took many of her possessions. This fund would raise money for the doctors appointments, tests, physical and mental therapy sessions, and medications Willow needs, as well as transportation to doctors’ offices and pharmacies. Willow tries to be positive and uplifting on her social media channels, and often doesn’t reveal all the hardships she deals with on a daily basis. I know that many of you love and care for Willow, and I ask that you please consider contributing to this health fund to help her get back on her feet. Any amount will help. Thanks, Meghan Miller
