Medical Emergency In The Way Of Business Opening
Donation protected
I am a licensed massage therapist who has successfully managed to secure a space for my private studio! Unfortunately about a week ago, a bacterial infection began forming into a massive cyst on my jawline and I don’t have insurance or any money to put towards medical care after investing my last penny’s into my business. I’ve been advised to deal with this infection immediately because it’s so close to my brain and eyes and could be catastrophic if it bursts internally.
-
I’ve supplemented my income during this transition period between my old job at a medical massage practice and my private studio opening using DoorDash and other gig apps but I’ve been forced to sit down and take care of this infection. This is simultaneously putting a halt to my progress in putting my studio together but I also can’t start seeing clients next week with with this massive golf ball sized lump on the side of my face.
-
I find a lot of purpose in knowing that I’m breaking generational curses not only in my family but in society as well. I value being a member of society that actively improves the quality of peoples lives. I was a personal trainer for 8 years before transitioning into massage therapy and opening my personal studio is truly a dream come true and the opportunity I’ve needed to finally live in my purpose as a human being.
-
Any assistance is massively appreciated. I plan on using the funds I receive from this campaign to schedule a dermatologist appointment for a complete removal of the cyst and the residual funds to finish building out my massage therapy suite which has been put on pause while I deal with my health.
