Help Riley Support Bethany

Donation protected
Hi everyone, Riley here. I will make this short for now and edit/add more and give updates later, since I just want to make sure this is up for right now. I am raising money for myself and my mom as we are currently faced with a challenging situation. I want to preface this with please do not reach out to my mom right now because she is currently overwhelmed and can't commmunicate very well. You are always welcome to reach out to me for questions, support, etc., though! But here is the situation: My mom has been sick since the beginning of June, with an array of physical symptoms, and after going to the ER 4 times, she was sent home again with "long-haul Covid". It's hard to even describe what that means, but her main symptoms are intense brain fog, constant headache/head pressure, insomnia/fatigue, and trouble eating and digesting. I have been staying with her for about 7 weeks now because her symptoms and brain fog are so bad she can't perform daily tasks or make decisions. I have been doing the grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning, taking her to the doctor (and one of the ER trips), being here for moral and emotional support, and supporting her financially as much as I can. We are both unable to work right now and we are scraping by on only our savings. My mom feels guilty asking for help again because she has asked for so much in the past with other emergencies, so that's why I'm asking for help for me. I am quickly running out of savings by trying to support her and paying for my rent and bills back in Florida without any income, and although I don't feel entirely comfortable asking for it myself, I need help. I need help and support so that I can help and support my mom. My mom is an amazing person and has been through so much, I know she is strong enough to do this, but it hurts to see her like this. She has done so much for me and been such a wonderful mother, the least I can do is be here for her in this. Any support is amazing; donating, sharing, sending love and prayers, etc., all of it is immensly helpful. I ask that people don't reach out to my mom right now regarding this because she's not super comfortable with this, and really, she's not at a capacity with her brain fog to even be able to take in or respond to messages. If you want to send support in the form of messages/that type of communication, I am here to recieve and communicate and relay them to her. I appreciate you understanding and know that I am not trying to stop that type of support, because we need it too; I'm just trying to do what is best for her. I thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart, and I send you so much love. You are amazing and I'm so grateful to have this platform and be able to communicate with you. Thank you!
