Help Elysia Live Pain-free (H.E.L.P.)
Donation protected
Friends, we need your help. My beautiful partner Elysia has been fighting chronic pain for most of her life; and since getting COVID three times (which turned into battling Long-COVID since 2021), her condition has deteriorated to the point that she can no longer work.
Yesterday, Elysia went to the ER for stomach pain and nausea. While there they found she has a serious thyroid and kidney issue and a fracture to her T11 vertebrae.
Endometriosis, PCOS, Long-COVID, and now a spinal fracture and a serious thyroid and kidney issue have left us without many options. Due to the instability of the last few years and Elysia’s worsening health, our financial situation has become more and more unstable. Now that Elysia and I are faced with these additional health issues, we've realized we have no choice but to publicly ask for help.
Your support will allow us to cover medical expenses, rent, utilities, groceries, gas, and potential travel needs to be with our families or aid them in getting to us, and assist me in caretaking.
If you know Elysia, you know that she's dedicated her career to caring for people's bodies, healing pain, and making people feel safe. Her massage therapy practice, One For All, has been transformative for so many people - and now she needs that kind of support. She's been grinding so hard, for so long, and has been in a vicious cycle of pain that prevents her from working, which forces her to burn out playing catch-up, which makes her condition even worse.
She needs time to heal.
Any help you can give would be appreciated more deeply than I can express.
With love,
Tymon
