Cyst and Fibroid Surgery
Donation protected
Hello Friends and Family,
I have created this GoFundMe page to assist in paying for some large medical bills I have acquired on my path to trying identify and solve the chronic pain I have been in since a young age.
I started my transition into womanhood at a young age (9 years old), I have consistently experienced extraordinarily large amounts of pain with this. I have spent countless amounts of time curled in a ball on the bathroom flood, dizzy, and violently ill because of the extremity of the pain. Having gone to many doctors in the past, my experience with many doctors has been to simply treat my pain with medication rather than searching for the actual cause. It had gotten to the point where I was overloading on over the counter pain medication which would barely provide any pain relief and has torn my stomach lining. Within the past year, my pain has not only continued but has grown significantly worse. This pain has not only affected my work (being able to force a smile while in pain) but has also impacted my social life, family life, and my passion for art and music. I am not able to live a full, happy life with my chronic pain always linger in the back of my mind and throughout my whole body.
For years I was told that this pain was "just a part of life," and "every woman has experienced it". My chronic pain was not taken seriously for over 15 years. With lack of experience at a young age, I simply accepted that suffering was my only option. I was told, "It should so away when your older." At my current age, I have not only grown sick of the debilitating pain but I have also grown smarter to know that I have the right to live a life free of pain and fatigue.
After receiving the diagnosis of Endometriosis, my doctors have performed ultra sounds and an MRI amongst many biopsies to find the leading cause to my pain. It turns out that I have multiple uterine cysts and fibroids. My doctors have stressed that this surgery should be done sooner than later as my cysts keep growing and becoming more painful. When contacting my insurance, I was told that my deductible was 6,500 dollars.
While I am fortunate enough to get the time off of work as well as the support from my friends and family, I was in no way prepared for such a costly procedure. Thus, I have created this GoFundMe page to see if friends and family could possibly help with this incurred cost. Any sort of donation, whether its 5 dollars or 20 dollars would be so helpful to put towards this procedure I'll be recieiving on October 25th. If you could share my page with your friends, family, and coworkers, it would be so absolutely kind and appreciated.
Kindly,
Lily
