Help Mercedes get to Texas for weight loss surgery

Donation protected
My name is Mercedes Cephas i am 37 years old single mother of 2 and I have been struggling with weight issues for most of my life and  started to gain more weight during and after the births of both my children. I had csection with both and got infections  both times leaving me with big open wounds that had to be closed with a wound vac machine and I couldn't really get a round with the machine attached to me. I'm just so tired of not being able to be a regular mom  like not being able to take my kids to the park or to just have family time with them or take them out or go to school plays or parent teacher conferences or to just check up on them at school also tired of missing family functions and gatherings birthdays and my family I'm ready to get my life back and start living again and my son want to go to the beach and I want to be the one to take him. That why I'm taking these steps to better my life for me and my children any donations will greatly appreciated I know its not goin to be easy I have a long road ahead of me but this is my start to a healthy life and journey for me and my children.
