What they care about

I care about writing, music, honest conversations, compassion, independence, and finding beauty and growth in every stage of life.

    An Important Update on My Journey I have some encouraging news to share. After everything that has happened over the past few months, I may finally be only days away from having somewhere safe to stay through a housing program that is helping me. When my hotel stay came to an end, the Durham Heart team supporting me through 911 helped get me to the hospital, where I have remained and while waiting for a safe housing solution. I have now been here for two weeks and am expected to remain here through the remainder of this week, when I hope to be able to move on to the next stage of my journey. The funding that covered my hotel ended when I left, so I now need some help getting through this immediate transition. There are expenses that need to be covered, including a deposit, food and transportation. I have very little available to me right now and cannot cover these costs on my own. That is why I am continuing to ask for help. I am not asking people to support me indefinitely. I am asking for help getting across this difficult gap so that I can reach the next stage safely, begin rebuilding some stability, and work toward becoming more independent again. If you are able to contribute, even a small amount will make a difference. And if donating isn't possible, sharing my GoFundMe can be just as valuable and may help it reach someone who is able to help. Thank you to everyone who has supported me throughout this journey ❤️. I am still moving forward, one step at a time.

    I’m Deborah, a 64-year-old woman working to rebuild my life after serious health challenges. Over the past few years, I have faced significant obstacles that have impacted my health, stability, and sense of independence. Despite these challenges, I am determined to move forward and create a safer, more stable future for myself. I’m preparing to move to North Carolina, where I hope to access better support resources, secure stable housing, and continue my path toward greater independence. This move is an important step toward rebuilding my life and finding the stability I need. Funds raised will help with the practical costs of this transition, including transportation, housing, and essential medical and daily living needs. Your support will help me cover expenses like moving costs, deposits for housing, and medical supplies that are vital for my well-being. After a difficult chapter, I am focused on moving forward with dignity, resilience, and hope. Any support, whether through a donation or sharing my fundraiser with others, would mean a great deal. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for being part of my journey.
