Medical Expenses for Katie's Broken Leg

Donation protected
I was on my way to my next adventure, Rockville in Daytona, and I slipped and fell and broke my lower leg/ankle in 3 places. I will require extensive surgery to repair my lower Tibia, Fibula and shattered ankle. The Doctor is planning on 3 separate incision sites to repair and brace the fractures with plates and screws. I will thankfully not have to stay overnight in the Hospital after surgery. I do have heath insurance and also Accident and Short Term Disability Insurance, unfortunately that will not help me cover all my bills, deductibles, copays, and insurance premiums. I am making this GoFundMe to help offset some off those charges since I will be out of work for months. I broke My ankle on the 11th of November and My Orthopedic surgeon scheduled my surgery for the 8th of December. Depending on my healing post surgery I wont be able to start physical therapy for 6 to 10 weeks after surgery and wont be able to go back to work till after that. Even once I am back to work in the February to March range I will not be able to work at the same pace or speed as my job as a Dog Groomer requires me to be on my feet a majority of the time. I know everyone Has their own struggles and hardships they are facing. The last two years have not been kind to us as a society. Any bit would be greatly appreciated or if you can not donate a share would be just as valued. I Have a CT scan scheduled for tomorrow November 24th and Have already had 3 sets of X-Rays. I will be getting those images and uploading them in a Update. Again, Thank you so much.
X, Katie
