Help Camila get through surgery

Donation protected
Hello Everyone,

My name is Camila and I'm reaching out to you for help.

I'm writing this because I struggle with constant chronic pain.

I've been experiencing chronic pain for quite some time now. These fits of pain have been one of the worst pains that I've ever felt, enough to debilitate me by not being able to walk. I've gone to the ER and missed work multiple times because of this condition. As one can imagine, this struggle tends to feed into my chronic depression and PTSD.

But I am keeping positive.

I am blessed enough to finally have surgery scheduled for Dec. 30th, 2022. The amount of excitement that this date has brought me has given me the strength to keep going and keep positive.

I will be out from work for 2-3 weeks, depending on how soon I recover. Unfortunately, I work for a small practice and they will not be paying for my time off. As of now, I am living paycheck to paycheck along with my spouse. Even though he and I work full-time, we are still struggling to pay rent as it is.

It would mean the world to me if I could get the help that I need to pay for both my surgery and rent for January. If there is anything that I can do in return for your kindness, please let me know.

And if I'm being honest, It's very hard for me to be writing this, but I feel like I can't continue without your help.

Any amount would help me. If you cannot contribute financially, I understand and please don't feel pressured. All I ask is to keep me in your thoughts and prayers for a safe and speedy recovery.

Thank you so much for your attention and kindness,

-Camila
