Support Surgery for a Full Life with Kids

Hello friends! I decided to take a leap of humility and trust ask for help with this one…

I sustained an abdominal injury during the twins’ pregnancy 9 years ago called diastasis recti. Although I’ve been able to manage it through special exercises and lifestyle over the years, it got progressively worse and for the last two years has involved wearing a brace 24/7 and restricted my lifting capacity to about 5-7 lbs, and made everyday life activities like housework, self care, eating, and grocery shopping difficult to impossible, as well as preventing me from hiking, and playing with my kids (running, swimming, sledding, anything requiring physical stability).

Now that recovery from chronic illness is complete and life with the kids in order, I’ve decided to take the plunge and get surgery so I can fully live the life I’ve worked so hard for.

I am hopeful insurance will cover a decent amount of this somewhat expensive procedure, and I am asking for your help with the rest. I’ve had a generous soul offer to come help with post op recovery, and I am grateful for every contribution, regardless of size. Thank you for being with me on this journey ✨
