Story

Hello. I am a single father to a wonderful 3 year old little boy and have always been a hard worker and done my best to be a provider and protector. About a year and a half ago, I developed severe pain in my legs and feet, which turned into a doctor visit. Through testing it was discovered I have a diagnosis of a rare form of arthritis which causes large calcium deposits to form in the joints of my lower body. This causes severe, debilitating pain and has caused a halt to working a normal job as I always have. In being completely honest, since then I have all but totally drained my savings simply living and raising my son. Surgery seems to be one of the only options but I do not expect others to pay for that, though that would be a dream. Mainly I would just like to wake up and not worry if at the end of the month if bills will be paid and food will be on the table. Between trying my best to not feel like I’ve failed my son and scraping to keep the bills paid and food on the table, I just thought I’d give a try of simply reaching out. I’m not one to ask for help, and in the past have been one to give where it’s needed most. I’m hoping that good karma really does come full circle and blessings do get returned. Thank you. Seriously.
