Help Her Stay Strong: Medical Bills and Lost Wages Relief

Donation protected
Hi! I have a friend who has survived more hurt and trauma in her life, than most people can imagine. She has risen out of the ashes and strives daily to rebuild her life and help others who have gone through similar things! She has been a foster mom for years, even adopting a few of her foster kiddos. This is a woman who has earned a degree, secured an amazing job, takes care of multiple kids, and volunteers in her community! Health issues are now threatening to destroy all she has worked for. She has had to have multiple surgeries, and the bills are piling up. She is currently hospitalized again from a complication from her last surgery, and has to be off work for the next several weeks. She didn't want to ask for assistance, but is out of PTO and her savings have been depleted. My friend is a self-sufficient woman in need of a hand-up. If we can assist her with some of the more overwhelming medical bills and lost wages, she can handle the rest and stay self-sufficient. Can you help?
Quick update: Sadly, my friend lost her job (and thus, medical insurance) during this last hospitalization and (incredibly) needs another surgery due to a complication with the last surgery! THANK YOU to everyone who has already donated! Not only are your donations providing physical needs, but they are very encouraging to someone going through such overwhelming trials.
